Nice, I'm thinking about just shaving the right side off and making that flush also.... The left side is mostly covered by the velocity stack... Im starting to like the way this thing is coming out lol

The foglight "block off plates" have "honey comb" texture to them. They are not flat at all, just so you know. You may want to either fill them, or make fiberglass piece that is smooth.

Here is a pic of my car to show you, it is hard to see. Plus, if you use photoshop, you can use this pic to mess around with.

Ya I realized that the block offs are honey combed... I already cut the piece to smooth it out flush from an old bumper lying around the shop.. I've just been busy now I havent gotten around to molding it in.. Update soon

Ps Ty for the pic, I'll mess with it a little tonight

Coming along great man! Is there any roundness/convexity to the filler on your grille to flow with the bumper lines? I couldn't tell from the pic. That's a 'tool' move, to leave one's tools on a fresh piece of craftsmanship..
