i took the hinges out and had the body shop sand into the fenders. i was gonna do it myself but i got lazy and let them do the rest. i didnt want to wait. im doing this guys 88firebird its got heavy ass doors. and then a caprice. me and a couple of friends. i just meet people at like the car wash and they ask me to do it. great side job let me tell you. you guys like the grill. its two grills overlapped. one with a horizontal pattern and the other with a vertical one

it shouldnt be hard at alll, agian its a matter of a place and tools but i didnt mess with it, i thought i would screw it up but instead i had some professionals screw it up for me its all fixed now and it took them like an hour max. it isnt hard, its all bolt on. its really a matter of what brand you use and whether you need custom bending or not
