OK...(sigh) so a string of bad luck i have had, but i am bouncing back. I will for the most part let the pictures tell the story.
While this was happening
I found this !!!
Getting ready
So excited to put on this CF lip!!!!
Fail!!!!! this lip is not for an EG
AND THEN!! this
guess it was a good thing the lip didn't fit
Hit some ice and couldn't do anything about it. Hit a small pole and corner of a sidewalk. This is the biggest damage that she took.
So along mechanical parts need were an oil pan, oil strainer, new headers (Cracked and bent), exhaust pipping and radiator fan housing. Some stuff i went for an upgrade. I did snap off my beaks bar as well.
PLM Toda style Header
Fan installed and found out under pressure the radiator leaks so i got 2 inch aluminum one instead of the 1.5 i had.
Got it back from the body shop and i had them mount a new radiator support and then i took over. Looking over a few cars on here (Teal, Trailertrash) to name a few and seeing how good a rattle can paint job can be i decided to try it out a little. Planning on doing the whole bay now lol.
I ended up shooting it with some clear too but i forgot to take pictures but you will see the difference in other pictures. Started test fitting.
Installed header and the oil pan by this point.
Awesome ground clearance even for as low as my car is
My son helped through out the day an he wanted to take a picture lol
There are some gaps but i will get that worked out with some adjustments Installed Radiator and fan but didn't like the red so i painted it but left the fan blades red.
Final setup for now and bronze tint to the headers after a drive in them.
Ran out of daylight but i will post some pictures of the a full view. Everything that is black is i plasti dipped to save time and because i am going to get it color match when fund are available.
