Got the rivnuts installed in the fenders today before the heater ran out of propane. Made a little modification to the rivnut tool to make the process quicker/easier. As you can see, the previous holes didn't work so well for how I wanted the flares. These will be welded closed before they are vinyl wrapped. I'm currently looking for some 10-24 1/2" long flanged socket cap screws in stainless or zinc for mounting everything.

The front spoiler/valence has been drilled. Still have some fiberglass work to do on it before removal to install rivnuts and such.

That looks fancy. I want to see it on all fours with the body panels on!

That tow strap is sweet!

Fiberglass work is complete on the front airdam. there were gaps between it and the valance that I didn't like. The Airdam, fenders and front flares just need some finish sanding and they are ready to be wrapped. Working on closing up all the misc holes in the front valance to make it look better and then it is ready for wrapping too.

Tow hook all welded up, painted and installed. Also got the valance smoothed and sanded down and first few coats of sandable primer on. I will go over entire thing with fine sand paper then shoot it with some 2K primer I have. Should be ready for vinyl wrap after that.

I made those cut outs to clear the brake ducts on the group 2 front spoiler. I could have cut them to look better, but they get covered up with the spoiler anyways. Why bother.

Waiting for completed pics then!!!

I hate body work. That is all.

Me too. I know how to do it, but HATE doing it.

Which orange do you guys like best?

[P_Roloff]

I’d have to say the top one.

[B C]

Top one is the one you showed me the other day, right? I still like the lighter orange
