More progress,Front bumper and bracket mods. I took out 2 inches of the bumper width to make it fit flush with the body. I also had to strech the ends and reshape the bumper so it fits closer in the grille

I replaced the factory trunk torsion bar with 2 40lb gas shocks, After that I made some trunk hinges from some 1/2 thick 6061-T6 Aluminum.
