Finally hung the choo choo nose on the car!!!! Some minor modifications were done to the nose, strictly personal preference. We shaved three inches off the bottom of the nose, this was done because I lowered the car two inches in the front, and was worried about road damage, and for eye appeal. Secondly, we completely removed the fender wrap around section which bolted in the wheel well. To me, it gave the body cleaner lines. The flared out section that comes from Honest Charleys looks great with the side body kit, but looked a little awkward for my application. HOURS OF FIBERGLASS WORK TO MAKE THE MODIFICATIONS!!!!!!!Still need to tighten it all down and then its time to drill the doors for the new corvette type side mirrors. Your thoughts?

Absolutely incredible work. Nothing like taking something and putting that personal touch on it.
