long story short, i had my srt fascia replaced a few years ago and they screwed me on the paint work. 8 coats of silver at different variations and no stripping of bad paint or proper prep work. over the last few years my fascia has turned into swiss cheese with all the debris nicks and two 3" paint cracks/chips on both sides of the fogs. recently i hit something on the highway and of course the first time i took her out in the last 5 months. it wasn't anything big or hard and didn't make too loud of a noise, but i felt it on impact and attempted to dodge what ever it was. there was no damage initially, but a few days later, web cracks started to pop up on the drivers corner. also, a nast group of cracks on the back side of the fascia, at the wheel well. one of those cracks are down to the black poly surface.

so my dilema is this, i've been wanting to scratch my fascia and start over again, but i've been waiting for the Danko old school style front clip/fascia to come out. i was hoping that it would be released this year, but doesn't look like that's going to happen. probably looking at another year, because Mo is focused on other smaller projects that he can knock out faster, which i understand. just sucks with the situation i'm in.

my options are to have a reputable body shop see if they can repair my current fascia, to get me by for another season and hopefully buy the Danko front clip next year. or buy another srt fascia $750 - $1000 or fiberglass version for $500. or buy the grip fascia with no crosshair grill. i like the grip fascia, just cant seem to get past the open mouth grill. i'm so in love with the stock crosshair. but, i think it's something i could get use too or modify something, which i'm always doing anyways.

ok, so what are your thoughts? please share them with me, because i've looked over way to many pictures of all and just can't come to a conclusion. It's driving me insane.

Thank you,
Jimmy

How about a Grip unit with the 402 Motoring cross-hair grille option ?

ok...ok....your twisting my arm here, rofl. i've always planned on the wait, just wasn't sure if i want to try something else in the mean time. the more i see the pix and talked with some friends with the grip, the more i lean away from the grip fascia. just something about i don't like and some parts i do. i'm going to the body shop by the end of the week and see what the damage will be to fix my crap fascia to get me by. my wife would kick my ass otherwise, because she knows that i know, that your front clip is the shit. i want it. and yes, i'll go with the danko chin as well. i've gotten tired of the daytona version, just wasn't anything else available.
