    Yeah I'm diggin' it. I need to fab up some side skirts to go with it. I'll look into modifying a CRX tail too. I bought it on special...I think it was $99 with S&H. Its a custom fit made of heavy ass ABS plastic. It had a few dings in it when it came but it was NOS straight from Germany. I got Louvers for the back to boot! I'll post more pics when I get the damn thing rollin' again.

    Yeah I need to drop that bi-otch some more too. Once I get to the west coast I'm gonna set it up for Rally with better ground clearance. Its got Koni adjustables on all four corners, coilovers in the back and cut high tension springs up front (I'll probably make some kind of custom coilover set-up).

    Question

    How do you guys think I should fill in the grill? The stock plastic grill is kind of cracked at one end and I don't like the way it looks anyway.I have some aluminum mesh and I was gonna make a front grilll piece but I'm not sure what I should fill the space under the head lamp housings with. The stock plastic grill fills those spaces. Any ideas?

    What, you mean Legend Master's Bumper pic? Yeah I need to repost another pic the light was bad when I took the last two...I was in hurry and the mosquitoes were knawing at my flesh...damn Florida, damn you!

    I wish my ride was closer to being completed. I need to finish the front end up and get moving on the interior.

    Yeah that is a tight Legend. They guy who comes in out of the shop where I have my car has one, same color too. Its a nice size Legend before they evolved into Lux-o-boats.

    Thanks I had it for 5 years before I sold it so I could buy the Accord. I swaped my auto out for a 5 speed and that car was pretty damn quick for the size. It would beat my friend LS powered civic Coupe with no problem and all I had done was a chip, intake, and exhaust on an 88 V6 with 176,000 miles . If someone was to successfully swap that v6 into a hatch or coupe it would be mighty fast. As for the bumper I think the car is wider then the Accord, but I am not sure.
