im going to tighten the rubber bumpers this weekend. I was on the highway a few days ago and hit about 80 to 85 and felt like the hood wanted fly off its weird because I had never had that happen to me, it has to be the new grill.

ya i was cruisin at 80 omw to work this morning and noticed some hood movement around the side edge, drivers side of course, so i will be doing the same....

as for painting the radiator, i didnt paint it purposefully, but i did get some overspray on it while painting around it.....i ran itquite a bit yesterday after everythng was done and temp was the same it alwas is....on these cars, the forwardmost radiator thing is a condensor for the s/c kit so if it affects anything it would be the performance i guess.....i havent noticed any power loss and shouldnt since its only overspray...

only time will tell :-)
