Ok, quick question here. I have my SHOSpeed Subframe Connectors sitting in the garage waiting to be installed. I also have my brand spankin new Perf. Plus stainless steel y-pipe that needs to be installed before I can get the MTX inspected (gosh darn emissions testing here in NJ :) ). BUT...I eventually want to get the Aluminum Subframe Bushings installed on the MTX, too.
Sooooo...my question is, what should I do? Wait until I can afford the SFBs and get all 3 installed at the same time? Would there be a problem with installing the SFCs and then later on trying to install the Alum. SFBs? (Also, should I try to install the SFBs myself or just let the shop do it?) Any tips would be great. Thanks guys.

P.S. - With the SHOSpeed SFCs, do I have to get those puppies painted before they're installed? (or afterwards? or do they not need painting at all?) Right now they're just a "primer reddish" color.

The Alum SFBs are pretty easy and quick to do by themselves. I would say go ahead and put together what you have and throw the SFBs on when you get them.

Ok thanks man. But will installing the SFBs be harder to do once the SFCs are installed? When I was under the car last, it looked like the SFCs might interfere with trying to get to the Subframe Bushings. No?
