Quite a bit more $$ to go ZL1 fascia... Something like $400 vs. $1,600 due to all the extra hardware ducts and things.

Owen just did one on Larry's twin turbo car and it looks great...

You don't have to buy the hood for the Z front end conversion. Gary modded the front end for me to match the cowl width on the hood.

I like the way it matched up. It gets a little lost with the difference in color where it meets up, but the one on the left side shows it better.
