Default Front end upgrades-what would you do?

alright everyone im planning on doing some mods to my stock front end[:'(] this spring and need opinions. Since i cant afford the front end i want i figured ide build my own. So far im going with a cdc classic painted like a gt/sc with red edges and a flat black center. Heres where im stuck: the grill and head lights...

what would you do?

-billet grill or eleanor centered fogs?
- http://www.agentfortyseven.com/S197/ramair.html .. i love the look of these but would have to keep stock fog location and find some hella's or something to use in that location as headlights
-or paint stock headlight buckets?

I just dont like any of those ideas.... eleanor = played out. Ram air in place of headlights = too much work and too much trouble for no real benefit. Painted headlight buckets = not good looking. search for pics, it doesn't look right.

Maybe a billet grill or something? You'll find an option you like.

im not a fan of any of those chocies either.

and i can think of at least 10 things wrong with removing your headlights for ram air.

just get some smoked headlamps and turn signals.

wow merdix thats a beautiful car.

trust me if i had the dough for a roush i would get it but $700+ unpainted is just too much. hey eddieval know where you can get another one for $400?

i really have no desire for the ram air effect i just love the look of those. i figured if i found headlights to go into the fogs position that would make it legal.
