    Thanks dude!!

    Can I ask what you did for the framing on your 1 piece front end? I started working on that a bit ago, but then the seats showed up and I was excited and moved to them instead.

    The pics are what I have so far. Was going to tie the two tubes together in a coupld spots, and then go back to where the hood pins will be. I'm not super happy with it yet though.

    I lost most of those pics of mine because photo bucket sucks but I still have this one.

    Thanks!! both of those look really good. I was originally planning to do a flip up, but I don't want the hinges sticking out the front, so I might just make it that you have to unplug the headlights and lift the entire front clip off. I want to build the most minimal front bumper possible. I am struggling to get the glass so tight to the headlights like how you got it. Gunna just have to keep messing with it I guess!
