Hopefully this doesn't come off to harsh, but it looks pretty bad IMO. Hood to bumper/grill bezel is awful. The paint doesn't match. The grill bezel isn't even flush. The intent is good, but the execution was poor. Hope the "sneak peek," picture isn't the finished product.

Gotcha, I am working on a conversion right now and it's taken a long time to get all the lines right with it. Throw in a CF hood to complicate matters. Been a nightmare
