I apologize as I should have updated my post, but I only have the clear corners and rims left.
Twisted - the MS bumper looks great! And I'm glad they didn't mess that up for you!

You might have to make a post in that thread. I know he gets busy.
You know what's funny? I just found my 6-disk changer in my garage from the car. I had put in the single MP3 player. Now I have to try and get rid of that.

Looks like Brian and I will try to hook up next Saturday to work on his car. If anybody wants to stop by and offer words of encouragement (or disparaging remarks), shoot me a PM for the address.
We are looking at Saturday afternoon.

Well did the hocking county run this last Monday. I took route 33 down to route 374 and hit old man's cave, conkels hollow, cantwell cliff and lunch from Walmart eaten at Lake logan beach.
Had a blast. Burnt a full tank with all the back road fun
.
I made a comment about holding back to the wife (No not that way!!!), she was in the car, she said don't let it hold you back....so I didn't. She never made a comment but man her knuckles were white
Take care,
Brian

Well the fog light install went off without a hitch. Thanks Huhwha I really appreciate it!!! Nice meeting you and the wife.
I now see how easy the front nose removal is. However my worry on parts laying around in my parking lot would have been solidified. A guy, in my complex, was replacing his alternator. Some of the kids were "watching". Turns out some bolts went missing. I am definitely a kid fan but his was my worry
. I did have to take my driver side fender guard back off to, ahem, hook the running light power cable back up...that was my bad.
Twisted, would have been nice meeting up with you. Maybe next time we can sync up.
The Athens repair for work last Friday went without a hitch and I was doing twisties in Hocking county by 2:00. We hit the upper rim at Conkel's Hollow and then met up with some friends.
Good times all around.
Thank you,
Brain

Glad everything worked out ok. The nose removal is a bit intimidating at first, but it really is fairly easy. I guess I'll be doing mine again once I find some cheap RB screens.

Looks like I have another project. My right taillight looks like a fishbowl 
I have the DIY to take it out and fix it, so if I get some time tomorrow, I will do it and report back.
On the upside, I just got back from what turned out to be about a 1300 mile trip. We went to the Chattanooga area, then to Huntsville to visit my son and back home. Car ran great up & down the mountain roads in the area and the 510 mile interstate run back from my son's place.
The only thing I noticed is a slight balancing vibration from about 80 to 90. It seemed to smooth out after 90, but that speed attracts a lot of unwanted attention. I'll get them re-balanced when I put them back on in the Spring. From the forecast, it looks like they'll be on at least another week.
