Big understatement, Mike
Also have some Techart bits going on too
Just got word from the shop and it won't be done until next week. Bummer. Was really hoping to get it back to drive this weekend. More pics once I get her back!

I like the black wheels Bonehead. It's fun and exciting to see one's car come together. I'm hoping to get the call today that my latest has finally arrived. Enjoy your ride.

Delivery day is fun, but waiting for the transporter is nerve racking.
After months of waiting, I'll get to see it today, but will leave it to have the wheels powder coated.

Deleted. Along with the silver nipples (i.e. headlight washers). Not sure I'm going to miss the fogs. I rarely drive that car at night ,and if I do, I can't remember the last time I've used the fogs.

I asked if it would be possible to retrofit the washer nozzles to the new bumper. But because of the design of the bumper and how the OEM washers are setup, it would essentially be impossible without it looking like hell.

They're removing the light and washer units with associated wiring and tubing and is completely reversible should I decide to go back to stock.
