there are way better phantom grilles than that one.Look around and youll find them .Trenz used to make one.Do you have the big sealed beam with the smaller signal or do you have 2 lights that look the same with the grille chrome in between them?

youve done some of the nicest work Ive seen on an astro.Im usually a hater of the prostreet look,because I like all rim and no tire,but the van looks amazing.Well done on the outside body mods too.

you can most likely lay the front bumper on the ground with dropped spindles and airbags on 20 inch rims with say a 40 series tire.It will hit on the inner fenders when you lay the van out,no big deal.Without a notch in th rear you can only go down until the axle hits the frame.I highly doubt youll ...
