Lots of off/on, and a little modification, but 12 hours later it's close enough for the time being. I've got to put headlight buckets in, plus all the hardware.

The top trim piece on the grill was sticking out farther than the hood profile line.

Looking good, Tim!
Little more work on the X today. New hardware for headlight buckets. Took me a couple times to get the right ones in the right spot.
I've always liked the tinted high beams, so I did mine in blue.
Got the hardware kit for the grille. I also have new trim pieces for upper and lower grille center. But first I rebroke the lower left tower, the stud goes in. So mixed up some epoxy, put the grille in and lined up the stud. Next week I'll get the brackets on the grille center. And hopefully get the grille in for the last time.
More details on the X. Installed the hook for hood latch. Even though it will have hood pins, I wanted a center anchor point.
Adjusted latch. Then shortened the lever on the release. Also sprayed the arm with flex seal to black it out
Put more epoxy on grille stud
Put new antenna base on. The first nut I went to put on had some flashing. Luckily I had another.
Installed access covers for camber/caster
I learned the hard way to always spin on the emblem nuts before installing.
