yeah, i got the same.  i figured it would be a pain in the ace, so after I get the oil pan on, i plan on spending a couple of hours cursing and yelling at the spoilers hoping they will put themselves on

update... got the spoiler wing on, got the new oil pan on, got the k member cleaned up, got the new headlight bezels on.

kinda messed up on the spoiler wing though.. tightened the four bolts down a little too tight and bowed in my decklid at the pedestal mounts a little bit.  sux for me, but to hell with trying to fix it.  its just going to have to stay that way. 

why they bowed you may ask?  my decklid was not made for a wing.. no cutouts on the bottom.  I "should" have used my step bit and made cutouts and then mount the nuts/washers to the pedestal mounts right below on the top metal of the decklid.. BUT... I didnt... so I will chalk that up as a learning experience.  looks pretty dang good though.

front spoilers look to be a pain though.  I actually have to flatten out part of the plastic spoiler so that it will fit the curvature of my fender.  My passenger side valance is pretty "not" straight, so I will have to fix that before I even think about mounting anything up front.  I will save that for a later date.  it is late and I am tired, so I will put up pics later.

actually i plan on cutting the spoiler's fender lip that is molded on there, reshaping it and then use an epoxy to mould it to the curvature of the 73's fender.  sounds like a lot of work huh? lol  i know... i am not looking forward to it.

I like it a lot!! That car sure has changed!!!

I was just ribbing you and by now I thought you would know my sense of humor. Do you think I would slam your ride after I posted asking for an update? I respect your opinion and your knowledge and it kinda burns slamming me like that. Don't worry I will not go cry in the corner as messages get crossed sometimes but you made it clear how you feel about me.

[RD]

next time, just try a emoticon. it helps out alot.  i shouldnt have reacted that way and i apologize.  its just that i have worked so much on this car and your remark really just rubbed me the wrong way.

[greenpigs]
