    Tried to do some lighting upgrades, and clean up a bit for you.












    Aramark FTMFW!!!!





    I wish I could have done the swap at work, 20 lifts there, 4 jackstands here.

















    Took me about 2 evenings, 1.5-2 hr each night, no hurry, i guess a full work day first will slow ya down.

    Just a few shots of the shop car I'm working on putting together. I know it's not o.e.m.+ design style, But it is a "Budget Based Parts/Customer Shuttle" vehicle. Not trying to win any shows. The H&R springs comming tommorow. Not bad for an old lein sale car I had in the back of the shop getting dusty.







    Sorry, Only cellphone shots though.


    LOoks like with the springs, it's gonna rub. Leave it to the owner of my shop to buy some e-bay wheels instead of getting the AMG Style 129 I told him to run.

    The car should be at the wreckers as of today, then it gets pulled, then packing, shipping. With these guys I expect it some time around the 20th.

    When I first got the car, I didn't know what it was and wanted to throw it away, thinking it was some VIS type stuff, then upon further inspection I noted how well constructed it was. I want safety over looks so factory stuff going on the front, I may keep the back on, or do the swap, I just don't feel safe in a DD w/ fiberglass protecting from major impacts. I do like them though, don't anyone think they will be leaving my garage.

    Wraped and in the rafters, saving for the next e30 project.
