well as far as geting the veilsde fitted it was a pain as always with knockoff covers. It was warped from a crapy mold but it was nothing my heat gun and some time couldent fix. the side markers were cake because i just used the stock units and a frp adhesive covered with fiberglass cloth. when it came time to shorten the bumpers height i just did alot of measuring to make sure it was the same and started cutting.

this is what im talking about! (well the rear bumper part, not the failside). I love it when others are original and do things differently. We need to see more of this!
