Indeed, will be getting some black radiator paint
Though a friend may have a hookup on anodizing it!

Quick mock up, followed by the good stuff!
Nice fit, but the valance needs work!
Started off with some smaller cuts
Made a few extra cuts for better flow,
ended up with that!
Fits very well!
And just to see what it would look like all tucked in there!
I quite like it!

Not being able to get a bumper off sucks, and any other way sucks hardcore.
Take off the bumper skin yet?
-
Any thicker and I wouldn't be able to run a bumper or valance lol
-
It will fit, its just going to take a bit of massaging of the valence. Get out the grinder!

I can't stand it in front of the valence! It's all about the stealth.

Tis the plan!

Looks great Ben. Can't wait for this to be finished up so we can boost around together.

I like!!! Keep it up!
Just a heads up that I will hopefully be copying you so hard with the intercooler placement/size.

good deal!
its a snug fit!

In lieu of having a snow day I decided to do some work!
Started off by fabing up a intercooler mount, it is a bolt on piece because I didn't want to weld onto the body for it, and it actually ended up being easier to mount it this way!
Looks simple but silly things like that take a long time to make! Will be painting all of it soon.
Then took out my windshield because I had some bubbling under the paint on the drivers side A pillar, which was really bothering me. I have never taken out a windshield before, but dang is it easy!
Was greeted by this!
Nice hole, and the bubbling is all still in there....
And then on the passenger side there was a bit of bubbling going on. It didn't look too bad, but wrong again!
I think I will be cutting these pieces out of good shells and welding them into the car, so I needed to do one more thing to ensure that it would be easy.
Bye Bye dash! Actually wasn't too bad to take out!
And here is another shot of the A pillar rust, from an odd angle of course!
More to come!

You don't understand how happy I am that you're doing things the right way. I regret tearing my car apart this summer and not tackling the things that really bothered me.

Thanks bud! I couldn't stand to leave rust there it would have killed me.
I wish you would have been a tad more careful with your car too
