Everything is good. I don't post updates here often...throw a pic up on IG sometimes.
Not to much has changed. I've been busy working on other projects.

Here are some updates since the last time I posted....

Aristo radiator went out. I knew it needed to be replaced since the time I did the swap. Upgraded to an aluminum one.



Around that time I picked up a set of front and rear TOM's braces, as well as a little floor brace.




Suspension updates were next. Coilovers, RCA's, FIGS products, brakes, and wheels.
Initially I went with SAGE RCA's front and rear. I did not like the rear design, so I sold those, and switched to FIGS there as well.

















How it sits now.



I have to fix the paint peeling on the rear bumper, then next is some engine upgrades.
