aww, what! Dave, don't show me things like this... especially not when I'm about to go out and do some grinding on my notch! 
I really like the front end, the way he has put the spoiler in the pretty much the same position as the original bumper then modified the rest of the
body to get the aerodynamic results is very cool!

mmmmm...very nice. Gotta love the shape of the early notches.
Jury is still out on the front spoiler however.....then again I did notice some snow on the mountains in the background. Maybe it does serve a
purpose.

Allan Fores pro notch ,40,000us ).
Tim's work is up there with the best !
