[QUOTE="geardownson, post: 3141963, member: 563195"] Well i finally started on my baby today. The whole rear end is torn off an the car is in total shambles. Shes gunna be parked for a while Things i got accomplished. 1) Almost have the accolade rear bumper fitted. I took the bracket off the old bumper drilled out the rivets an rerevited it to the new bumper.Had to do a lot of grinding on the bumper to make the brackets work.Even after i get this thing on i still have fiberglass work to do because for some reason theres a big hole at the bottom of the bumper. Dont know why they made it like that. Looks as if it was made for a trailer hitch.(WTF?) 2) While adam(my bodyman) was messing with that i tore the whole inside apart. Drilled a hole in the firewall for the cables for the gauges. Wired up all the power/ground/illumination for boost,egt.oil pressure. Yanked the light bulb for the ABS light. All i got to do is make the hole in the firewall bigger so i can run my wideband then i can finish up the preliminarys on the gauge install. Turbo should be in next week so then i can start fitting the aftermarket bumper with the FMIC an hopefully all i have to do is adjust the side skirts to make it all flow... Hopefully.. Today i didnt get as much done as i would have liked but i had to keep running to the store for little BS an parts. (Which was irritating the hell outta me) [/QUOTE]
