99 monte body question
Ok im putting a 99 monte body on a imca stock car and i ordered the 99 monte nose from performance bodys but the nose is about 9 inches wider than the body is this normal do i need to cut it in the middle and norrow it up? or is there another nose that fits better?

99 monte
So dont keep the hood and fenders factory spacing between them?
-
Just cut the nose on the top of the fended running with the hood/fender line. rivit nose to top of fenders then push in the sides. rivit sides of the nose to the fenders and cut off excess on the top after pushing the nose in. this will make the nose pull the fender sides out and have a nice wide look to the front. no need to add any metal or cut the center of the nose.
-
If you pull the fenders out that far the hood and trunk lid don't reach the fenders on front or rear quarters. So what are you doing for the hood and trunk lid
-
Ok an aluminum hood off of what and how are you pulling rear quarters out wider and not making the trunk lid wider
-
Well if yu don't pull the rear quarters out about 8 inches you are not going to use the performance bodies rear plastic bumper without shortening it
-
I always splice my front nose cover and rear bumper cover. The first time you make any contact it always tears at the plastic flange, so when they are new, I cut the flange off and form a piece of alum to fit the contours and rivet it to the inside of the nose. They just seem to hold up longer that way in my experience. Also allows you to adjust width if needed.

Dominator makes Monte SS Nose and tail pieces. They are well built and look awesome, the durability on them is bar-none. I have been using Dominator exclusively on my car since they opened their Dominator SS line 3 years ago.
