Okay here's the parts sitting in my car backseat and trunk

2 Front axles, 2 front hub bearings, 2 front struts plus lowering springs, 2 front sway bars, back shocks lowering springs and sway bars. finished drilling holes for the caliper brackets covers, engine/trans torque mounts, front brake pads, Spark plugs, coils, thermostat, throttle body, noisemaker delete, 3 bar but I think need a tuner before I can put that on. Finish installing 3D camera system and probably a few other things I can't get off the top of my head
Good stuff. All pretty easy.

Easy if someone that has the right tools and they don't live in a apartment complex where you can't work on your cars

I have been there and done that as well.

Lol I think spark plugs/coils/thermostat/throttle body/housemates delete and 3 bar sounds like a realistic afternoon ....all the other stuff sounds like a massive potential for a setbacks....maybe best to do that at home in case the car doesn't move for a day.....or two. I'm not a mechanic so I can see everything else taking longer (somehow) than I expected. Two experienced mechanics though....you guys could bang this stuff out in an afternoon

I had big plans for the first quarter of the year for the SHO, however it is not a financial responsible upgrade at this time.

However, another member on the other forum ordered a pair of bronze Niche rims, and I really like the look. So, for $70 shipped to my house.......

I am going to plasti dip my Curva's this burnt copper color. This will match my Devires burnt copper overlays, and I think it will really pop on the car. If I hate it, then I will peel it off and it will only cost me $70 and some time. If I like it, I will keep it on. Once the time is right, I will peep the wrap and get them professional painted in the same color.

Not the mod I was wanting, but I am really excited to see how it turns out.

I used their classic gold on a set of wheels a couple cars ago. Definitely goes well with a black car.

I'm due for a wheel color change as well! My wheels in their butt ***** form are gloss black with a polished lip. I've done a light gold...almost Bronze, Graphite and currently Gloss Black..all Plasti Dip. Also have played with putting SHO on my grille.IMAG1546 IMAG1187 IMAG1084 IMAG0894 P 20180517 193654 vHDR Auto IMAG1616

Thats always a bummer when life does that. I was hoping to get the intercooler last year myself, but things came up as well.

That color should look really good though.
