How did they do this?
I think it looks pretty neat once done.

looks like a lot of fabrication where they added metal and took other out.
Got a pretty good start on my M46 optioned Barracuda restoration but now it is on hold till I can gather more funds.  Still need a few parts for it.  SIU Graduate 75 AAS Automotive Tech, 94 BS Advanced Tech Studies, 1997 MSED Workforce Education and Development

You better REALLY like the look of your grill and headlight bezels, because there's no taking them out after you do this. It looks good.

I thought that car looked familiar - this was the one that looked so slick but they really were 180 out on the interior

Okay, so they go to all the trouble of blending in the front bumper, but they leave the back one as a bolt on??

I've always wondered how a Challenger would look with a flush bumper.

Beautiful job on that car. I have always preferred the little piece that goes in front of the 'Cuda hood and that would have been a nice addition to that fabrication. I would also like to see a flush tail on a Challenger, I bet it would look awesome!

if your hands are good friend with your head combined with some fabbing skills it's a piece of cake,if you want that done to your car, let me know, I have no problem doing this kind of work, if I can make Lexus headlights and Infiniti tailights to fit a Honda, this is a walk in the park
