if you wanna put the trueno bonnet on u'll have to change to trueno headlights too. What about modifying ur levin grill??

The levin guards are different from trueno on AE101.

Im sure you have thought of this, but why not design a custom grill insert which you think would look ok and get it made at your local fabricator/kit maker?
after all the swapping you would need to do it would work out cheaper and be origonal like you want.

thats a good idea, but i would think it would cost to much
how much would it cost roughly? any fabricators here?

does anyone have any ideas on what would look good?

open to ideas at this stage
