who wants a new style kit for their 7g?

[Livn2sk8]

hey Seth, if the 97/98 front bumper hasn't even been made yet, how can they ship you the 97/98 front bumper? and if you are getting the 94 style......why would they tell you to get the 97/98 grill(header panel).....

i'm confused, and i'm not sending any money until someone other than peano, gets a kit and has a pic or two of the quality....

Good Luck you guys...

[Blue Ice]

Does your tracking number work yet Mindless?

Yeah, but that damn truck is moving to slow. I WANT MY SH*T!!!!!!!

[8G_GTZ]

it's coming from Cali, so it'll take about a week for seth as he is in Iowa. I'm in St. Louis, MO and Peano sent me the HFC and took exactly a week(sent mon, rec. that fri.). that was via UPS though. as you check the details, there will be 8-15 steps involved due to so many drop off and shipment locations. i would also like to know how your g is comin along seth? hopefully it will be started soon. good luck to you all.

hah, i can't get a jack under my front or side....so how do I rotate my tires or take em off? well, take off the front and jack it up as high as i can for the front, and rear isn't a problem at all. sides........well fuck em, they're molded on now so i can't exactly take em off. oh well

after i had the sideskirts put on, i had to build a ramp out of wood for the two front wheels. i made the ramp exactly 1/16" shorter than the front bumper, so i drive onto it, and the car is about 4" higher than it was. at that point, i dont even put the jack underneath it half the time. cooler this way, i just can't get onto a jack anywhere else or onto a lift anywhere....ever.

[seth98esT]

Buy a body lift

Whats this? Mr DHL guy gave me my bumper today? Yup, he said he didnt want to lug it around all weekend till Monday so he gave it to me today! Muwahhaha. Teh PICS:





And the bumper which Im not sure how it is supposed to mount:

[josh_877]

AWESOME!!!!!!! i cant wait to finally put my order down.....soon

[seth98esT]

Wow Im surprised to see the lack of responses :lauging:

Pics of it on the car:







It fits ok, I had to drill the holes though for all the mounting points, none were drilled for me, but its easy. I used zip ties for the time being b/c I dont know where my bolts are and its a fast install/removal

Im lowered a good 2" and there is still 7" of clearance so that is good. I started to cut the bumper so I can fit my FMIC in and I almost got it done then I broke my last cut off wheel so I will have to finish it another day. But there definately is room for an FMIC, I even left my power steering lines in the stock location.

And dont go by the gap by the headlgihts, my JDMs arent properly adjusted yet
