Looking good, but...
If it was me doing it, i would have made the bottom of the SVT bumper parallel to the ground, instead of it at an upward angle. Needs a mirko now, lol!

Nice!
Weld it - then fit it and bondo onced fitted so it's in the position it needs to be otherwise if you bondo it of the car then fit it - any tweaking to get ti to fit right may crack the bondo.

That's a good job man. I love those pre-98's with SVT bumpers and skirts.

Can't really do that without screwing up the body lines. I want a stock SVT front look anyway. The car being up on jackstands give the illusion that it might be angled up, but I was very careful not to get the "micah" effect.
Thanks for the comments, and good idea stazi.
