Thanks! Now if I could only free up time to get the rear diffusor done in time too...

We made a grille from a sheet from customcargrilles.com, pattern is called XXL Hexagon and we're going to powdercoat it black. I made a 2D drawing to work from if anyone needs it, but basically you bend over the original plastic piece.


(and yes, the first try came out too narrow courtesy of USPS)

I was worried about heat soak under the hood and also wanted to reduce front lift even more, so Dustin at CPR and Bob from SoCal Paintworks made some inverted louvers in the hood. A real pain as its all double layer under there and any heat makes it warp. Cant press directly into the hood but needed to weld in a separate piece. Came out great after some bending back in shape!
