Five exhausting days modding
 

Bare with me as I literally did spend four days installing coilovers and one installing my catback. On thursday, the first day, I thought that at most it'll take two days and be easy. I didn't take into account my "help" which annoyed the living crap outa me with their smart-you-know-what advice and broke various things without me asking them to ever touch anything. The first hour I ran to the bathrun for 3 seconds and when I came out there was a broken bolt in the p/s LCA. I had to pay $70 to get that out as it was REALLY impossible to get out. It was now day 2 when the bolt in the d/s LCA was broken...and than attmpted to be drilled out without me knowing about it...I was lucky that I had a set of 'teggy LCAs to put on. day three was spent productively actually installing things where possible without the missing bolts...I stuck a screwdriver into the d/s LCA where the shock goes in as it was the only bolt I didn't have a spare for(gotta pick that up today at the stealer for $15). The fronts were so easy that it's not worth talking about:-D And I spent around 4 hours removing t he old exhaust which disintegrated in my hands and putting on my new catback. It's ricey as hell as I can stick my foot up the exhaust tip, but its better than driving around with pieces falling off from the exhaust.

Sweet man. Coilovers look good, but how bout a shot of the whole car?! Also, as far as the exaust being "ricey.." Mine is about the same size, only flush with the bumper instead of sticking out. But anyway as long as it sounds good and performs well, thres nothing to complain about!

I'll get the whole car tomorrow, when I adjust the heights so that it's even...as it is now it looks like theres a jack stand stuck under it.
