Looks good! I just have one comment and don't take this the wrong way. Why would you open up the center part of the bumper if you have a varraram intake? I'm not sure it serves any purpose.
Maybe there's a reason I don't know about like a tranny or oil cooler maybe?

Looks great. I concur that the center screen is a little askew.

Very nice. I like the split front cover way better than the full opened screened look. Very creative and kept the logo.
How did you edge the holes after cutting? I think I see a bit of some sort of lip.
Nice job.

I think you might think about NEW Rotors cross drilled and slotted too!
Actually the work you did looks real good!
Thanks,Matt
