Re: Take look at this front end.

Re: Take look at this front end.

Just because you can........ Doesn't mean that you should.......... If the owner sees this....Sorry. I'd tell you to your face if you asked my honest opinion. |

Re: Take look at this front end.
also, notice how the upper slat of the grill has been bent down to follow the contours of the original grill and give a nice clean, finished look. attention to details... good job.
