I suppose if I had to pick one it would be using the black surround headlights for the Acura TSX projector retrofits instead of the chromes.....

Tried this one my ole 94' RCLB, turned into a nightmare. By far my worst mod. Had to take it to an exhaust shop to get it leak free.

I spent 3 hours under the truck welding it up and its gonna be another 3 before i get it completely sealed, our exhaust shop wont work on a vehicle that dosent have a converter. They would have to put one back on

I should have warned you... now you're just like the rest of us!!!

Ya I know! I can never leave a vehicle stock! I've done little by little for years and its finally starting to add up real nice!
Worst thing is tho in a junkyard ***** and find some good parts for my truck but I got so much stuff to swap out its almost over whelming this year of what to do next!
O well tho...

i think my worst mod was buying the cowl hood i got,, i got it at a swap meet off of a guy,, the hood had a bug shield on it.. when i go to sanding it to primer it, i took the bug shield off and there was a decent size dent behind it with a lot of putty trying to cover it up,,, the dent is bad enough that it raised both corners up about 1/4",, i should have just bought the brand new hood from the vendor that i went out there to get,,,

That looks like an easy fix, I'd take it off your hands if I lived near ya and got a good price.

The hood looks to need to slide forward a bit and then bent down on either side.....it is a metal hood right?

Fiberglass is a bit more involved....

yea,, its an easy fix,,, ill have a decent amount of metal work in it to get the big dent out of the front middle of it, (alot of studding and hammering),, the sides are an easy fix,,,
