cut your header panel off and shorten your front up 4 inches and then cut the mouting piece of your bumper shock off and get 2 inch pip shove in your mounting hole and then weld your pipe in then your bracket on.

dont have any pictures on how to do it. its really simpel just cut your header panel at the seam top and bottom and then cut your unibody frame 4 inches back but make sure your fenders are off then weld your header panel back on

ok so i did shorten my car the other night. it wasn't bad i took a bunch of pictures so it can be shown how i did it i shortened mine 5 inches so i cut the whole core support off then i measured back 4 inches and marked that but also marked 2 inches also so that i could cut it off at 2 inches and the inside out a 4 inches so that the core support would slide inside the frame then you cut the same angle all the way to the top of the dog house then slide the core support back on and test fit it and if you like it there weld it and it should look like this also you can cut a little around the light whole on the core support when you get it welded back on to make a flap to weld down the inside of the dog house for extra support it was my first time doing this. took about 3 hours cause i never done it before now i think i could do it in about half the time. my fenders are actually perfectly in line with the core support now.
