Sorry for the bad pics. I think the lens need to be cleaned.
The dog bone has now been conquered. That concludes the bearings in the front suspension.
So I was looking at the cost of OEM bolts and said F that. This came in the mail today instead. Not much more in cost but so much more every where else. IMO These are for my brake bolts and for most of the rear suspension. I really wish MITSU didn't use the crappy 1.25 thread pitch . I would have order more.
BLING.

Thats an awesome body kit, but I hope you're not painting the car white. The view from straight in front of it looks like the face of the stay puft marshmallow man from ghostbusters, lol! It'll look better painted but thats all I can see while its in white. Glad to see the project moving along, I've been wondering about it. Great work as always!

White is out of the questoin. Drew car is that color and he designed this kit.
Boost... its my drug of choice
electric blue would be badass on this

Had some time so I did some body work. Lot of little things that need to be redone or improved. No matter how good the fiberglass kit is there are always things to fix.
Front drivers side fender had to have changes made to get it to fit to my liking.
I had to shorten the bottom of the fender where it meets the front bumper. You really can;t see the work to this area in the pictures. What I did was add glass on top of the existing mounting flange then went to town with my belt sander. I took about 1/8 of and inch off of the bottom.This allowed the bumper to sit flush with the bottom of the headlights, the fender to be tight to the head light and now the outside arch over the head light now lines up with the line on the bumper. Wish I would have taken good before pics.
The end of the fender (point/ flat section above the headlight) hand to be shortened so it would line up with the edge of the hood.
Added some glass to the fender edge around the top headlight to bring the gap down to factory size or maybe even better.
A bit of sanding was done to the top of the fender to bring it flush to the hood as well.
The rear over fender did not sit very flush on the top edge close to the tail light. So I pulled out the painters tape, sand paper and fiberglass and went to work.
No more gap.
Fixed the gap on the flat edge of the fender that sits under the tail lights. You can see what is added as it's brown.
More gap fixing. Over fender point near door.
Changed up the way the fender bolts on near the door. I cut off the fiber glass stay. Welded a dzus fixing plate in place on the body. Then added glass where needed.
