clean box
everything on the car polybushed - new gmax suspension

here we go - bodyshop pictures
if you fit pattern wings - be prepared on work on them a little bit.
they fitted great but they had some imperfections in the finish
went into primer tonight and should be painted by thursday
and the piper cam is now fitted (not run in yet)

Looking good - make sure you make a guard for the alternator becuase it is very close to the bottom radiator hose!!! - You don't want to loose all your coolant!!
