Last thursday I made some progress but I haven't had the time to update so here we go....lol.

Me and a buddy tore the front end apart the night before so I could straighten the front valance that was all mangled.

Early Morning before starting on it...


As you can see the bottom piece of the radiator support is twisted like 180 degrees, lol.





Next is the actual valance...




There was no saving the piece that got most of the torture, so I fab'd up a new piece out of metal and weld it in...




Also we decided to clean the bay before we put the front end back on...

Before


After

Yes it is pink, lol.

Finished product


And the rest of the pictures from the day...
