Why is there a space above your kidney grilles?

Before you get that all fiberglassed together, take the front bumper off and fix that panel between the grills and the bumper. It is screwed into the lover valence, btw. Plus, it will fix most of your front-end alignment problems. Otherwise, looks good.

Is that not supposed to be there? I'll have to go look and see if something is misaligned?

The passenger fender is an aftermarklet fender, and I have a dtock one I'm prepping and going to fit on.  At that point I'll worry about bending back out that piece I believe you're talking about.  That should clear up all the lines in the front.

Yeah, that gap isn't supposed to be there.  Look at the difference between this car and yours:

Ok updated pics! :)  Things are coming together finally.  I've repaired more of the damage up front. I still need to adjust the hood and replace one piece of the upper valence behind the bumper, then everything should align correctly.  It's getting close though.  Work in progress....  Still have lots to do to this thing.

Enough rambling, on to the current pics. Enjoy:
