Body Lift Gap Fix 1st Gen. Ranger

[Mechanickid]

I was wondering when you guys do a body lift on a 1st gen what do you do about that fugly gap on the front clip. The piece right below the grill. I think it would be relatively easy to make a panel and cover it up but what would you guys do? I was thinking about a body lift but now I'm not sure.

use a piece of black landscape edging and attach it to the back of that facia piece.

I took two plates to bolt on the sides of the frame to kick it up 3", then welded some pieces of angle iron onto them to mount the bumper to. Then I welded two loops to a piece of angle iron and welded it to the vertical plates. I then trimmed the stock airdam to blend it in.
