thanks tarafied, i thought for sure they would screw into the 5.5'' headlight bucket :shrug, its a rebel kit, it's as lumpy as grandma's buttcheeks, i have yet another question for you, I'm not putting the flares on, think i should just sand down the little flare on the bottom? and should i be mounting a stud on the lower nose to pull it close to the fender, in the lower front of the fender?

I'm not sure I follow you. What lip are you talking about?
On the nose I put a brace from the lower fender where the original valence bolted and tied it over to the core support where the inner fender bolted on. I made to force the fenders to be rigid and where they would be tight against the nose. I don't know if it will work for you but that helped mine fit without any studs.

sorry, confusing, the fender flare lip on the lower nose i wanted to make it flush with the stock fenders, yes that is a great idea i will borrow it from ya!
 
so you don't want the fender flares? I think it has been done. Here is a pic of an E-vert where they didn't use the fender flares and blended the nose to the original fender

I sanded the clear off the existing Kandy Apple Cobalt Blue. I also put a door skin on the driver's side it was made by Charlie and it was the first part made by him that fit pretty good, im on the fence with these side scoops i was thinking of using, what you think? No side scoops- these side scoops-or 67 side scoops??

well I used Elly scoops but I do like the Shelby scoop. I think if your doing the front/rear FG you need the scoops but that's just me...
has all that snow melted? I have to go to Wisconsin next week.

+1 I think you need the scoop.

Craig, the snow should be gone by next week. It was in the 50s today and the same for the next few days.

Those look pretty slick. A little less noticeable, more blended in .
