    You'll start it up and it'll leak. Then you'll have to put the copper washer on with it on the car while getting a coolant facial.

    I washed and waxed both the hot hatches today so of course it's going to rain tomorrow.

    Test fitting my 19x10 front 19x11 rears on the Mustang. The 20x9.5 poke just as much as the 19in wheels. The 19s shift closer to the coils so I should be good and or hella flush.[​IMG][​IMG][​IMG]

    If it's hella flush the pedestrian limbs won't get jambed up in the wheel gap at least.

    Totally true. Although with the 19in wheels it'll lower the car about .3 in so I may have some issues getting into my driveway. It's really close as is right now.

    Installed SPC camber arms on Saturday, need to get an alignment now.

    Ordered a tune for my Corksport turbo swap this morning; hoping @JohnnyTightlips can make it this weekend for an install party!

    Yeah it was not too hard, I did chip paint but I expected that as it was kinda rusty back there anyways. It only chipped on the inside of the well and I sprayed it. Will have to properly touch it up when I have more time. I did have to use a rubber mallet to get the lip bent just enough so the roller could get started. All in all it was not too bad.

    Good to hear man. Yeah, already having rust would make it hard.

    Replaced all door speakers with Polk 5x7's. Changed out both bad front door lock actuators.

    Yesterday I finished putting everything back together and checked over all bolts and vacuum lines.
    I ended up installing a catless DP, S3 turbo, JBR EBCS, new map sensor, and new spark plugs.
    I had to get used to the oil, coolant and allllll that PB blaster I used that needed to burn off lol. Other than that will be sending logs to my tuner. It smells like it's running a little rich

    Polk Db571's, my car is an 07 with the Bose. They fit perfect and sound great.

    You still running the Bose amp? Been thinking about a speaker upgrade, but would rather not install a new amp too.
