72 duster Build progress

Nope, the core support "grill area you mentioned" is all body color as well, just my phones camera doesn't take the greatest pics on sunny days. But if you look back in the thread you will find plenty of pictures that show that area.

The tips are a little bigger than factor tip openings but they aren't ubnoxiously large. I slid them on the pipes of the car real quick to get an idea of how they would look and they look right at home. And they actually changed the tone of the exhaust quite a bit too.....sounds really good!

Was your core support blacked out (behind the grille) from the factory? I know ma mopar usually blacked that area out... Though I have seen plenty of people leave it body color... Mine was blacked out from the factory... when I repainted the car, we assembled it with the front of the core support still B5 blue.. If you look at my thread when the car first started going back together you can see that.. I was gonna leave it at first, but with the theme of my car (black top, black hood, and the grille mostly in black) having that bright blue clearly visible through the grille drove me nuts LOL .. I ended up taking the grille back out, masking it all off and going back with the factory black on the front of the core support (only where it would be seen behind the grille)... I cant wait to see yours all back together..

And I know what you mean by appreciating all the views on your thread (both from the regulars and the lurkers) my thread has gotten up there pretty good in terms of views, and that makes me feel good, and proud of the work I have done (I have a ways to go to reach your view count LOL) I of course will continue to be one of the regulars to your build my friend
