Some progress last night and today. A buddy and I started making the setup for my trunk.
Made a basic frame with 2X6 and got some 3/4 MDF for my custom sub box.
Got the rad hoses cut to size for a perfect fit and placed the 16 inch Mishimoto slim fan. Still am missing the left side rad mount bracket.

Finish it off with the first air'd pics with the new paint.

LOL its still there. Just on the other side of the wheel. But the the paint cracks when the wheel turns. It wont last very long sadly. Especially once I air out on the it.

Today.. Today was a fantastic day. MASSIVE progress was made. The painter was at the shop working on my doors, trunk, IS wing and tank. I on the other hand was vacuuming and cleaning the floor of the car so I could lay down my carpet and interior. Everything went smoothly and came out great. Getting closer to driving it finally. I do have a power steering leak somewhere and noticed that there is fluid all over the floor so car will have to go on lift soon.
