Repro grills made out of ABS, seem to be almost nicer than the originals. Clearly have some bumper alignment issues but at this point there’s really nothing to do about it. Nobody is going to be looking close enough to see that the turn signals don’t fit quite right anyhow, they are pretty deep set in the grill. Also, not going to even bother using the double sided tape. We all know these are going to have to come off again.

Floor patch 90% completed, still needs finishing work and paint. Not looking too shabby.

Gonna try to complete the car after work this week and do another test spin. Wish me luck! Haven’t installed the rear floorpan guard but I should be good for now. Need to snag some longer bolts to sinch it into place. I was able to strech the braket into shape by using my floor jack to spread the ends apart.
