It's a bad pic but here's one of my firewall ground under the hood. I used a stainless steel bolt and nuts along with a star washer. The only ground here at the moment is my under hood lamp, I'll be moving all the grounds that are on the thermostat housing to this location. My stock volt meter dipped drastically when I use the blinkers, A/C or headlights and I read somewhere that sometimes the ground at the thermostat is at fault.

I worked on the electrical system to try and fix that gauge bounce so I went ahead and added some grounds. I added a Battery to Frame, Battery to Radiator Support(where I also added my headlight ground as well) and upgraded the Battery cables. After adding the grounds and upgrading cables I noticed the battery meter would not dip as much.

Thanks! actually no i dont get a lot of rock chips on the bumper. to be honest the bumper is sprayed with dollar store black paint and it matches almost perfect. if i would have wet sanded the bumper it would have matched perfect.
