Post pics and maybe a little tutoriul please. I think I just might do this myself instead of having a bodyshop do it for me.

Congratulations!!!!!!! When I installed mine it took me about 4 hours. The hardest part was bending the radiator support so I wouldn't bend the fens. Did you get yours all the way back so it's flush with the hood?

Good Job 8G! I did my install about a month ago or so and took me roughly the same amount of time. I will say that I loved using the hammer on my radiator support though! https://www.thegalantcenter.org/style_emoticons/default/wink.gif
