How I spent my Sunday, Befor and After Pics

Finally got enough time to do something productive with my day.
Pulled parts off my crushed SE (tree fell on it last year), and spent the day installing them.
Also did the fog light mod, and installed FSTB, Cold AIR Intake and Stillen sway bar(not pictured).

A good day if I say so myself.

THE PARTS


BEFORE


AFTER

Thanks for the comps

No install issues, and ride if fine. no rubbing, and alignment seems fine. No alignment issues when installed on mySE, so I'm not anticipating any here.

Biggest problem was fishing out the RSTB nuts and bolts out of that d#mn bracket over the rear stut towers.

Hey Craig,

I installed the strut braces without the bar attached, so I can get my hand in there to install strut nuts. Rolling out the edge of the factory brace will give you more clearance for the washer and nut. Clearance issues only let you install bolt from the front. I guess you could install it assembled, but my big hands woundn't fit in the space.

And yes, that is Kujo peeking from behind the car.

That's a good Sundays worth! The wheels look nicely tucked too. Did you change out to clear side markers in the rear as well.

Yes, wheel are needed, but first I got to do the brake upgrade, tint and exhaust to follow.

How I spent another Saturday and Sunday

Just wanted to share my weekend with you guys.

My son started rebuilding his motor and never finished it before going into the Marines. He's coming home from bootcamp in 2 weeks, so I took on this huge task to suprise him with it.
This was a complete block up rebuild, not much isn't new. All stock for this car. Car started right up and ran well, small coolant leak which we fixed

Time for a beer.
