I would like to know, what do I need to add to this build, to make it completely Romanian?  BTW, the internals are US compliant.  But for the exterior what do I need to add?  Muzzle brake?  Flash hider?  Thanks in advance.

A muzzle brake (slant type since this is a 7.62x39 AK) and that pistol grip has got to go. Ripcode will know what kind has to go on there, but I would guess it has to be wood or bakelite.

As far as compliance you should be fine just make sure that you install a U.S. break or you could replace something else such as followers or floor plates.
ETA I belive you would need a bakelite pistol grip which can probably be tracked down on the EE. When you add a new pistol grip you will need another U.S. part. I have U.S.A Mag Followers and Floor Plates for $2.25 a set adding those will let you put a foriegn pistol grip and break on. Heres my site if your interested www.MidwestArmory.com

If you add these, just be careful of your US parts count.
