Yeah I test fitted it tonight, it didn't fit perfect but nothing we can't fix, just needs some TLC. The holes line up fine though. I just wanna clean it up a bit, fit it, then repaint it before the final install.

No, your wifey picked up the car before I got an estimate. I will call him for a verbal though I need to go by anyway to get a price on my hood.

Ok Jeremy is trying to get the rest of the stuff to complete his stereo in by Friday. He wants to install before the Texas8 next weekend. If he gets the stuff I am having him come over to my house this Sunday. Should be an all afternoon affair. More details to follow...

Update- his stuff will not be in until Monday or Tuesday. He really wants this install before the meet next weekend so he is going to let me know when it comes in and I told him we could do it over a couple of evenings next week after work...

First, they thought that they were out of the speakers that I ordered, but found them in stock later. Then, the next day, they realized they didn't have the amp that I wanted so they upgraded me to a different amp and knocked $200 off the price.

Now it says it shipped, but I don't have the tracking info yet. I think they just marked it as shipped because I kept hounding them.

Hope I have time to install it all before next weekend.
