Using premium on an auto is no fun lol. Dude its Arun, no e in the end.

Thanks Arun, I just about got it all pulled out. The hood looks great and the fender looks great as well. With a little more work tom I may have it to where I can perfectly fit the light (or close enough for now).

So we might need updated pics already lol

Yea and that gators tag does not match at all its coming off, it was a joke

Got the headlight today. Think I am going to put a OEM bumper on it and lower the car a couple inches. I might (MIGHT) paint the rims black and tint on the lights and reflectors black.

Finally have it done and the total investment in this car is under 7k, still need to buff and get an A/C condensor, and some shroud under pass fender, besides that that car has been great. BTW the front license plate on my car was a joke from a long time ago I don't actually drive around with it on lol. I decided wisely not to mod it being an AT, maybe just a lowering in the near future.

Ill put up pictures soon got a final thursday. Anyone who needs help or tips with body work on the 8 let me know.
