Jim has this clip he got in and if he parts it out or can't sell it as a whole I can't get the st205 front end from it. Everyday he has asked me if I want it and everyday my answer is different lol. Keep in mind I still want to keep the duckbill and Jim wants to try and have the Hiro lip made to fit the st205 bumper. This is just to get your opinions I still don't know if the hood and bumper are gonna be sold and what I wanna do. I also picked up projectors so you can picture them on the cars lol.

keep your hiro lip shannon, ST205 front end was unique in 2002, now the whole marvel comics legion has ST205 front ends, your car is more unique the way it is, not many hiro lips around. plus, you just started driving the car, enjoy it, stop looking for downtime modifications lol

I say keep it the way it is, Shannon. That lip on your car now makes it uniquely yours. I know you by your car, and your car is definitely one of a kind. It also separates your car from Jim's a little bit, since he already has the ST205 front end. It's a kind of his-and-hers deal you guys have going on.

I don't understand whats the big fuss? It's your car, you do what you want to it. If you want to have the st205 front end then you do it. If you want to keep your st204/02 with the "Hiro" lip then you do that. Doesn't matter how many people have the same front end or how rare it is. It's your car...I don't see why you need others to make your choice on how you want your car to look like. Personally I would go with the GT4 front end only cause that's what I'm doing to my car cause it's what I want to do. No one is making the choice for me.

This will neither make or break my choice I am simply getting what people think and hearing there reasons. I still need to think it over and over. I kinda feel that the gt-4 front might not fit my car with the duckbill like my setup does but I'll think about it.

I'm not a fan of round fog lights. they look better on trucks, thats why I suggest you stay with your frunt end, also its flat on the bottom which gives it a better look to it, so keep it man

Simply... when I see this picture...
I see your car... ...and when I see this picture... ...I see just common GT-four. So ask your self question: "Do you want to have 'your car' or copy of GT-four?" -------------------- No more replicas... This is evolution... This is SS-four :)
