Nice work Jeff! I have this modification in my plans as well...

I am curious if the rearward portion of the front clip rubs against the doors or get's too close as you are lifting/closing the front end?

I recall a tilt front end that a friend had on his car years ago that you had to spread the bottoms of the fenders as you lifted/closed the front end so it would not tear up the paint on the doors. This car (57 Chevy) had fenders that went all the way down to the rocker panels though..
