    ok guys so i have been working on the car and drinkinga all day i thought i would get alot farther but i ran into a problem with the drive shaft. it seems that when i took it off i stripped the threads on it so that haulted progress for the day.

    today i changed the plugs
    wires
    oil
    3 out of 4 rotors
    and the front breaks
    i had just planned on doing a tune up but seeing the condition my poor car was in after only 4 months of beeing with the wife. :(








    i had very little clearance in the rear


    and a shot of the one thing that fit right in my whole day

    ok guys its about that time for upadtes
    so the day started off good i got my new axle and put everything back together on the drivers side


    so after a victory drink i moved on to the front bumper issue since in tired of chicks laughing at my car lol

    I chopped off the bottom couple of inches having looked at it now i should have cut a little more but it will do for now





    thhhhen i moved on to making it more sturdy and fixing nixs and cracks





    My attempt at prolonging lung cancer



    glass and supplies provided by us composites




    NOW ON TO THE PICS YOU ALL CAME TO SEE









    i think this is turning out dam good so far

    the tire is a bit large but i had to get somthing to see how it was going to look
    size 225/40/19
    i did listen to you guys about the 225/34/19s but they didnt have them at the shop.
    on deep compression the top of the rim (including tire) tucks in with no problem. BUT
    with the airbags going back on (some day) it is going to tuck to close to the tire in the back and looks like it will set on it. hopefully when i buy the new 225/35s 2maro it wont be so round and will clear the fender when i drop it on the ground in the rear.

    im not worried about the front because its only a 11mm shift outwards and whats that like a third of a inch. so it should tuck with a slight pull on the 215/35/19s

    it wasnt until night fall that i discovered i had two different lights lol they are still bright as hell though



    my spedo came out beautiful though. not a single dark spot, also bright as fuck



    but earlier yesterday i tackled this beast.





    im almost pleased by the turn out









    that was all for yesterday

    today was a hell of a day i took full advantage of the local junk yards 50% off sale and get damn near a whole new (used) interior to paint.
    4 cans of spray paint and 1 1/2 can of bulldog and my homie and i were wasted lol.
    sorry my cell phone is tripping with my pic messages so i will get painted interior pics up asaic

    agreed



    oooh oooh oooooh my fitment is perfect! (in the rear)
    i cant speak on the front because i dont have the bags on it yet but it looks good ever 4x4 style.

    but today was quite busy i insataled drive star push button start (drank a beer)
    it works good but gets anoying when you walk back and forth from the car to garage looking for parts and the car keeps locking and unlocking.

    got the tires and rims installed and Strate up NUTTED.
    (drank a beer)
    about 3/4s of the cars interior painted black, chrome door handles, and shift knob
    (drank a beer)
    i will get a new camera 2maro and show you guys some pics
    and now im goin to finish my beer and call it a day
