Looks really good!

Maybe I don't see it in the picture .Looks like when you install the front bumper and the brackets they block the air flow to the front brakes.The original gap under the bumper is supposed to funnel the air to the brakes. I was advised against filling that area of the valance from someone else that did that mod , they overheated their brakes on the street. Yours looks killer , and makes the front end look much cleaner. Great work

I love the rear spoiler....Personally I'm getting tired of seeing everybody remove the side marker lights and leave the area blank. I would like to see some custom fabricated side markers like a single strip of LED's counter sunk into the panels.  Make a small steel trough wide enough to hold a single strip of LED's the same lenght as the stock markers and flush mount it to the panels....Something different, something cool  I say...

I agree that I could have done something different,but I have never seen this on another car here in Norway,so I think I just keep it this way

Looks Good,Makes it looks less cluttered and smoother. These cars have great lines to them and lend well to the shaved smoothed look.  Ideally I want to lower my front valance about a inch or so myself. Have you decided on shaving the bumpers. ? Keep up the great work

 :clapping:The car is insane. Love it. Did you use drop spindles in the front to get that stance, also with the street lynx kit how low can the car go in the back end. Wanna lower my cuda like your but not sure which route to take. Thank you

 I did mine by removing about a 1 1/2 on both side and bending the ends outward to fit into the fenders . http://www.cuda-challenger.com/cc/index.php?topic=75207.195      CJD Automotive in Jacksonville FL , Is in the process in making fiberglass and carbon fiber shortened bumpers here is a link for that http://www.protouringmopar.com/showthread.php?1274-Jacksonville-Florida/page3

Talk about subtle details. Check out the pictures of this original V Code Cuda. http://www.topgunbodyandpaint.ca/cuda.php The guy went through the trouble of shortening the bumpers, tucking them in tight to the body, removing all the mounting bolts then having them re-chromed. Tons of hours cutting and fitting them plus the cost of re-chroming and I bet no one even notices....

If you look at the King Kong Cuda you will see how nice that front valance mod really is 
Yes,Im going to modify the bumpers. Not sure if I will use the stock front bumper or a 69 Camaro bumper yet.

Thanks   I use the stock spindles that came with the RMS Alterktion,In the back I can lower it some more,but I need to have 9cm clearing from the lowest point under the car and to the ground to get it approved by the DMV.

Thanks
Will start on the front bumper work this week,did finally found a pair of nice used 69 Camaro bumpers to start with.
With this modification the front and rear bumpers match each other

[hemiken]

This should be interesting, i see the method to your madness actually, in wanting to use Camaro bumpers, if you run in to something, you do not want to damage the Barracuda bumpers.

[Ken D]

Bumper work is finally done!
The plan was to use 69 Camaro front bumper,but it was much easier and less work just using a original one,and I'm happy with the result!
Also the gaps around fenders,doors and trunk lid is finished,and a Ridetech gas cap and "Foose" alu mirrors is in place.
