        I'm for the oldschool - boxes are boxes exactly cause they have sharp edges Personally I don't like the 88-91 GM fronts and Vics front and back, they just don't look right. That said Pete don't you dare screw up your white beauty with a front edn conversion!!!

                    Im wanting to cut about 1.5-2" out of each side of my bumper and then re-weld them, to bring the ends of the bumper closer to the body.

                            I reallly like the maroon 88-91 that was posted earlier. It's giving me ideas...
                            You can take the man out of the Crown Vic, but you can't take the Crown Vic out of the man.

                              I kind of like this look. Could mod those opening for cool air for the intake.

                                Yeah, I had thought about that. But the peak of the hood doesn't match up either.

                                I should have left the headlights out and done ram air.
