              Yeah, how do you plan on attaching the rear? It's royal pain in the ass, and would take serious bodywork to do it right.

                it wouldn't be that hard to tack weld it on... its about the same as cutting out and replacing a section of sheetmetal... nice work man, its gona look hot when you gett'er done.

                          Bill, you did it, right? No major bodywork invloved whatsoever. I'm cutting it off some more, right below the side trunk vents, just leaving about 2 inches above the part you can actually see under the bumper. Then I'm pop-riveting it on the car, just like this guy did. If you look, you can see the seam where he cut it off, and it's a straight fit from there. It's really not as invloved as you might think, you just might have gone a different route than I am.

                            Mine is about a big of a hack job as you can get - I just stopped caring about it. It's slightly harder than that. You can't just cut the current valence off your current car, because there's shit below it. Say, the corner pockets, and wheel wells.

                            That guy's looks decent..from those angles - I'd like to see what inside his wheelwell and up/underneath the apron looks like.

                              you should just sell your car and get a late model or at least just get an aftermarket rear apron. Thats pointless imo, but its you car so rock on.
