of course everybodys "dad" has this fast car or their cousin yada yada. To each their own man, post up pics of your car and lets see what we dont like about it. dont come on here saying something is hideous, like you make the almighty decision.

I posted a pic of one of the hoods he was interested in trying to help him out.

97stanger, I love the lights, but from your first picture you posted it looks like there is a bigger gap on the passenger side than on the drivers. (hood to fender gaps). Is that just the picture or is there an alignment issue?

it actually did used to be off alignment until one day it bothered me so much that i seen why it was off. One of the rubber bumper support things for the hood wasnt pushed in all the way and was throwing if off a little. I'll see if i have any recent pics of it, it fits almost perfect.
