ok i need some help with my g/f veilside kit. the front end...well no holes are drilled so obviously i have to drill em...on the stock front end the holes are 1/2in away from the outside edge...the new fron there is barely 5/8 there..and on the top one there isnt enough to evern drill into...another thing, the bumper (aka big ass piece of steel) is showing on the "mouth" of the kit...is this normal?? also the foan from the stock front..does that go in the veil? and if so then i just cut it down right? HELP ME PLEASE

It is done much easier when you take your wheels off. Then get a few clamps and clamp your front end in place. Then drill your holes from there. Also the bumper should come with indents where the holes should go. but these are usuall off.

on the top part where the hood closes there were 2 holes....that was it. so i lined up the seal/metal as best i could, drilled and voila. the sides kinda got on my nerves though cause on the stock front the studs sat in about 1/2 in and on the new front there was like 5/8 of material...but amazingly it lines up pretty good. now as for the bottom section of it. the parts that goes out by the fenders...they are a lil too close to them, so i am gonna have to bend in the fenders some or tale alot off the glass...... this normal for this kit? and i am leaning towards bending the fenders rather than filing the glass simply because there isnt much glass there
