JDM Front End Conversion / Hood Latch Relocation (revisted)

As some of you have messaged me a quite few times in regards to some pics to the hood latch relocation
Here it is!
Sorry for the delay!....................................
First thing first, to stress again, this route that I partook was the quickest and most economical way of doing the front end conversion (or could be the only way)
As seen in the pics below, the North American Hood Latch Support which extends the hood latch out by about 6 inches was removed and not used any longer.



A new hole was cut out for the relocation of the hood latch to match up with the JDM hood.



Saftey wise? well I can't really see the nuts and bolts bolted up to the factory rad support can come flying out nor the metal being too thin to hold the latch itself.
All in all, work is pretty much done on the relocation to get this front end conversion completed apart from the little details to make it a better finish!

Final Product again!

Enjoy!
