Travis, how are you liking the Stillen front end? The more of it I see, (especially on Mike the Powdercoaters black Z) the more I like it... Just kinda unsure about the fitment issues and the 3 pieces...

It's great for me... better aero, more room for cooling, etc.

For a street car, I would hesitate to use it because of the three piece design... and I'm not very picky... having the extra seam was a mistake on Stillen's part, I'm afraid to say... I think they did it for shipping purposes, but would have been better to leave it as one piece

Even if blended, likely to show cracks there eventually

Hmm, I'm just thinking for eventually one day a fun track car, and with the intercooler in the front, it will definitely look better.

And yeah I think it was for shipping? But if a good body shop does it, you think it's worth it?

My body guy told me that he could try to hide / blend but it would eventually start to crack and that I ought to just go with it... that's what I did... for a track car, looks fine... overall, I think it looks better than stock

Hmmm... Damn. I really like it, and I'm wondering if with black, would it be harder to notice??

Maybe if Mike ever sells his, I can just pick it up cheap...
