Hey Steve, Grille and ducts are Street Scene from Stillen. The ducts are open, but yes, there is surgery that needs to be done on either the duct or the scoop. The scoop is more difficult because it is powder coated aluminum while the duct is plastic, but is not as noticeable cut as the duct would be. Just had to attach the scoop, then set the fascia in place while I tried to judge how much to cut. Took several times to get it right, and had to cut twice. I'll try to take better pics at some point. Here is a pic where I was preparing to cut the scoop and one of ww relocate. Portable jigsaw worked great.

Where do you get the static clings from???

No clings..its airbrush..I modified a j.peg I found and templated it..tested the airbrushing on a spare sheet metal then photoshopped to see what it would look like...the finished artwork will be a little crisper.

Mark, front end looks cool and functional, awesome.

Mark, your hood will look sweet when it's done, I am guessing you are keeping the car now?

Yeah, you're right Andy. After all, it's only the 7th V8 Mustang GT I've owned.

Heh, maybe I'll win a trophy drag racing it like I did with one of my other Stangs. Oh wait ...

Seeing how drag racing doesn't involve waxing the inside of your fuel door cover, you probably aren't familiar with the sport.
