    You use the impact strip from a rear bumper to delete the fronts. Not snap in though, gotta do some plastic welding.
    Awsome thank you..!

    I was going to build a couple of them till I scored a cherry 524td manny..
    I still have the parts sitting on one of my welding benches..

    Heres pic's I just took with my fone...
    I don't have stainless, just thick mild steal.
    I can chrome too if needed..

    I the euro trim will only delete the side marker. The blinkers will need some custom work done. I'll hit you up in a couple weeks after christmas and we can work some details out.

    You know, That's not a half bad Idea..! :D

    So whats up with the adaptor you wanted?


    Mean wile back in the bat cave..
    The Faux-high beams I've been working on
    Lost one in the first attempt..
    But I figured it out! :mrgreen:

    So looks like the last thing I have to do is relocate and mount the oil cooler. Then cut the light buckets to remove the high beams..
    I was thinking about the open holes so I'm going to cut up some lights and make faux-high beam light to fit in the open spaces...

    I'll do your adapters, and other smaller shit, but I would rather stay away from the exhaust of any lenght..
    That's kind of out of my department.. I wouldn't be the guy bending them, as I'm not as versed on the cnc benders and would have to pay a guy to bend. This would cause a bit of a probem for me as I'm not the owner and could have a little back lash...
    I run the shop but don't pay the bill if you know what I mean.. sorry
    I would love to get my hands on a exhaust... drool

    the other stuff I can do...

    I'll give you a whole turbo setup if you make me a batch of manifold back exhaust systems. I should have some jigs made by the end of the month. You guys have a mandrel bender? My fabricator only does minimum orders of 25 and i only can afford small batches like 5-10.

    Really do you have any pic's very interested in your set up!
