Working on the body a bit

Decided it was time to clean up the body a little bit, got the sideskirts all installed, modified an undamaged set of fenders to allow for a fender that is part of the hood/bumper assembly, as well made some brackets to support the upper part of the sideskirt and support the new hood design. Lastly spent more than few hours inlaying the different hood components, attaching the fenders to the hood, fixing the gap in between the hood and the bumper, making trim pieces for the lights and lastly adjusting the height of the lower impreza bumper and fastening it to the upper fiero part. Now that I've done all that I can clearly see what the front end will look like, and I like it..........now the fun part starts, I gotta make a mold of the entire front end and replicate a one piece assembly.

Still have a few mechanical things to clean up though, she needs some windshield wipers, need to look at the hinges for the engine bay, they are bending due to the pressure from the gas struts, needs some turn signal lenses in the front of the impreza bumper, couple lights are missing in the rear, more than a few blown bulbs and most importantly an intake filter and support brackets to hold up the turbo.

Lastly, took Yu-Ju for a rip in it :)
