Show wed the photos to my wife who has last say on all things that go into HER car.

She said she wanted the wings, and I wanted to get rid of the hole in the front of the car from that chunk of Ice 2 years ago.

So with some commitments to a few of the other pieces I went for it.

The door went smoothly. No problem there, but the front was a different matter. See this thread for my first problem

Then at the end of the day yesterday as I was putting the new front end back together I was ready to button it up, I used all the yellow from the kit I bought except the service flap, and has to use all the black pits (grills and fog covers) from my car. I was putting the service flap on as the light was fading as the last bit to finish the install (less the antenna:eek:) when I realized I forgot to take the latches off the old center piece:eek:

Time to pack it up for the night and start again in the morning.

Today my 5 year old and I went out and took that front end off, installed the latches, and had it back together in less than 1Hr. I think I got the hang of this thing, and I didn't even break any of the silly clips on the lower rocker panels.

First shot, the beauty shot before the plate was moved. If you look closely you can see my helper:)


Now with the plates


After it was all done, I tossed on the new set of tires I bought on the rims that prompted this thread
