I like the Fuchs. You should consider doing the centers of them in silver as well.

Yeh, I have been thinking of painting the center in a dark charcoal. I want to see some pics before I do it though. They look pretty good now, but need more fine sanding around the lug nut area.

Another vote here for that after market nose, it looks great, very clean.

I agree with 89AZ944 looks great but you need fog lamps to finish it off.

Yes, I have them and I need to get them installed soon. I keep having something else come up though. Like the slave/master clutch leak which
is getting tackled this weekend.

Lowered? I can barely get bottle jacks under it now. It has 50 series tires and is low enough for me.

if you prefer a stock front end, I'm sure an owner who prefers that front end would be happy to trade. Both of you would be happy.

Nicely done. You ought to do the rear bumper (fiber werks) too. I did mine in white. Came out great!

With that dark color you might consider going to clear side markers and turn indicators....

Actually, they're clear/yellow on the street. The other pic was at a DE with black tape on the glass for protection.

Thanks everyone. I believe I will keep this aftrmkt nose since you'all like it so much. I'll just plan to strip it and paint it in the near future. It has a pathetic paint job on it now.

Can't wait to get her back on the road Sunday I hope.
