did you talk to the man?

[ThreeHonks]

Wow it's like a race car now. Cutting the cowl and no wipers. Time to face the truth.

Lmao, exact title of a text I sent tonight "Race car". I imagine Sean will around eventually to lay it on extra thick

I still have one wiper tho, does that still count as street?

[SS4Matt]

looks good. honestly, even when I had wipers on my car, I NEVER used them, it pissed me off the way they sat half way up the windshield when they were on. between the glass cleaner I use, and tons of rainX, if I ever did get some rain, it blew right off the shield.....Wipers are over rated. You still have a street car in my book if that's what you wanna call it!

Looks good so far, are just cutting as you go or do you have a template you are working from? I will have to reference this thread in the future.

[Lucky SOB]

So, are your leaving that brace running along the front to mount the plastic cowl to? Most of the cut cowls I've seen have had to cut into that plastic cowl as well. Will you be doing this?

No templates. The cutting is limited to removing the wiper tray, replacing it with a flat piece and welding everything back up, smooth and paint. The "brace" stays - we'll call it a weld flange at this point

The plastic that covers this artistry will be massaged as well. The result when done should require a double take and/or a side-by-side comparison with another fbody to see the changes. Operative word....."intent"

your hood needs a lexan insert

[nascarnate326]

are you going to mount the passenger wiper for fake "looks" or just ditch it completely?
