Well, I finished 1-3, took forever, like 5hrs or so. I need to get my radiator support replaced, **** is gonna cost me like $500 for parts and labor:madfawk: I tried straightening it out as best I could, wasn't happening. So here's my dillema(sp?) I have the $ for my paint job set aside already, should I put my car in the shop, get the radiator support fixed so my grill,headlights and everything else is flush like it's supposed to be or do I live with the 1/2" offset on the passenger side headlight(it's pushed in about a 1/2" on the high beam side), and the same offset on the grill, and get the whole car painted? Right now the car is bordeaux red pearl, the hood, passenger fender and bumper are black. So what's it gonna be, everything flush and even, with black bumper, hood and fender, or slight offset of headlight and grill w/fresh paint job? Paint would be same as the car in my sig(that's why it's in my sig for those who think im trying to front:fawk: )

h: While im doing my header today im gonna check it out to see if that's doable w/o breaking the headlight bracket. It was a pain in the ass trying to find that damn thing for under $50, I don't want to go through that again.

you should have done a documentary type of thing to show other people. it would have slowed you down but it would have been cool for everyone else to see.:bigok: keep up the good work though
