I've tried to reload this latest photo several times and it only displays the top half of the pic. Is it just me?

this is such a cool build, I havn't scoped it in a long while so all these updates from the shop you sent it to are new. They seem to do really good work, but I am curious as to why you all decided to rebuild the front spoiler out of metal ? would the fiberglass be too weak or something ?

Thanks guys...
Breakerztoyz...The shop like working with metal much more than fiberglass... the fiberglass fenders and frontend that I built was heavy..in fact heavier than the metal but my plans were to make a mold and have extra...but having metal it can be repaired...
