First off, thanks guys! This is going to be a building year for me, with so many changes.

The new chassis work is almost done. I had a problem with trim with the carbonetics fenders, the factory trim would not work. (Even with significant mods)

I learned that I needed to use Eclipse rear trim to eliminate the the eagle talon side/rocker trim. So fast forward, I removed the trim and it uncovered a rust spot on the passenger side and a big dent on the drivers side. I patched in new steel on the passenger side. This sucked, and was a good for me to learn body work...i also patched the holes for the trim mounting locations.

What is crazy is this was all done with custom paint mixed and 2k clear cost aerosol cans!

I also cutout the intercooler opening, I was unwilling to keep the front end closed off after research on the benefit. I built air guides on the intercooler to match the bumper profile.

Just noticed your hood pins. I was thinking about doing those for various pieces on my car.

What are your thought so far about them. Granted your using them to hold your hood, so that definetly says something by itself at the speeds you run.
