Your ride looks awesome. Getting mine on the jack stands any day now to do the Steeda sway bars, IRS alignment kit and IRS busings as well. How much room did you have and was it enough. Front sway bars are a bitch huh? lol. Have also been talking to David and probably going to switch out my progressive springs for the ultralight linears. Have MRR rims and Nittos so should look similar to yours.

Thanks man! Honestly on jack stands all those pieces you'll have plenty of room to get it all done. The only time I've really wanted more room was with the headers. The front sway you'll want the front end pretty high up so you can get it angled out and through the driver side fender well. The hardest part is just getting that stock bar out. The Steeda bar goes in easy since the mounts are not attached directly to the bar like the OEM one. I love my ultralites. Honestly every Steeda product I've gotten is phenomenal. The bushing supports, getting that rear lower 2 piece in there is pretty rough only because there is hardly any room between the bushing and the subframe. I suggest having some type of grease or lubricant to use and a pry bar of some sort to get it in there.

On the rear lower 2 piece, I used a flat head screw driver and twisted the screw driver to work the piece around. It was really tight. I have some pics on my build page

That sounds like what I did. I had my smallest pry bar and used it to push and twist until it was lined up enough to get the bolts lined up. Mine isn't perfectly straight but it's in there. That shit isn't coming out that's for sure.

Yup. Same. I think those alone got rid of most of my wheel hop

We shall see how much fun I will have. :frusty:

Headers are in. Car feels great and pulls like a beast. It's also loud enough to walk the dead. Here is my solution to the AC bracket that the headers make contact with:

the stud once the bolt is off

the stud comes out, just lift up on the metal and slide it over

I used a metal style zip tie that's tolerant to the heat and just flipped up the bracket and zip tied it up to the line above

Then heat wrapped the line

I really like that grille (without the lights). I wish it was available 4 months ago. That will look killer on your car.

People are going to look in their rear view mirrors and be like "what the eff is that?!" As you pass them of course. ;)

I need to find out if Diode or somebody will be up for being able to do some RGB LED's in there. Just the clear DRL's don't do anything for me, but if I can get it to change and match everything... oh man.

I'm with you. I'm pretty ocd with stuff matching.

That looks amazing in my opinion, and I am torn as to whether you should put it on your car...

I was heavily favoring getting them for mine, but we live so close.. Showing up to C&C in Franklin looking similar..?
