Yeah I was looking around and found a few foxes for less than 500 bucks. and a couple Capri's too.

It would be pretty sweet since I already have the 5 lug swap, "built" diff, Cobra brakes, etc.

I think Im gonna wait and see what work is like this summer before I make any decisions.

Wait, what happened to it? I didn't even know you had a cobra front to go on.

Oh stock, I thought you picked something new up but didn't tell anyone! haha

So on another note boys, got my termi bumper on and I couldn't be happier with the looks except one thing. I have the fog lights in but they're not wired up. Anybody have an idea of how I can wire these bad boys up short of paying like $160 for the harness through VMP. I'll post pics of it in a few. I don't mind it with the stock side skirts. I would really love to get those fogs wired up. I might just rig something up with my guy who does my body work.

Well finally...as promised here are the pictures. I think he paint matched it perfectly, can't tell the difference at all, but he has been doing it for 30+ years. If anyone has an idea for the wiring harness for the fogs, I know you guys have some tricks up your sleeves, let me know. Also, are projector style headlights better for HID's? I was going to get the smoked clear corners because I think anything over my old *** stock ones will improve the lights. I'm not a huge fan of projector style headlights though. Pretty sure you have to have a front plate here in RI but **** that. I'll keep it in my glove box or something I don't want to mess up the new bumper or pay $40 for the bracket on SVT.








random picture at autozone, my buddy next to the car.

Finally I know it'd been killing me sitting in my room. F that, the car is lower enough up front as it is, trust me. I'll get a good picture of the clearance tomorrow.
