Looks a lil funny now without side skirts and corners, but I'm sure it'll look killer when done. Love that hood btw.

You have to pass by my house to get to Kerville, so you can swing by and we will install it. Or if you want me to bring it I can do that too.

the front bumper was hit on the ride side, it made the left side pop out.

im getting brand new front, side skirts, and rear bumper all very soon. they were shipped and made fresh in japan so they take awhile to get here.

That's a little closer.

Hopefully your car will be back to the way you want it really soon.

Looking forward to seeing the final product. Definitely glad to see the rims staying with someone on the board.
