Everything is painted! Heres a picture of the front bumper tossed on. Still need to get the new fenders, sideskirts and rear bumper installed but Ill hold off until the weather clears up.
Also picked up a Silk Blaze trunk spoiler. Heres a picture of it mocked up
Thanks! The fogs that fit are hella ff100. I found the silk blaze spoiler from someone selling it on a gs facebook group. You can find them on yaj though.

Looking good that was my first full bumper kit on my GS. Love the look on a black car , hopefully your weather gets better so you can finish it up.
Got the fenders, front bumper, sideskirts, and wheels on. Still need to get the rear bumper on but I’ll leave that for later. Here’s how its lookin
Also picked up some Serial Nine differential bushings
Installed the serial nine diff bushings, and wow do these make a difference. No more clunking when I shift gears and the rear end feels very solid. Definitely worth the money. There is a slight increase in noise within the drivetrain but that is to be expected with these type of bushings.
Did you have to drop the subframe when doing it? I've been thinking about getting them as well. With the high stall TQ and 3.76 diff, I get clunking/hopping in the rear when I take off. I also get some shuddering from slow acceleration from a stop while turning.

I did not have to drop the subframe. I cut into the bushings with a sawzall in a few places so that the outside collar of the oe bushings would sort of collapse. And then I used a prybar, flathead and hammer to do the rest. Not much room to do it with the subframe still in the car but it’s doable. I had a lot of clunking when shifting gears, and now its all gone. I would highly recommend these and think they would help in your case.
Got the rear bumper on. Had the driver side exhaust hole deleted so I can run a single exit out of the passenger side. That should be going on hopefully soon.

Nice progress, I was tempted to run the solid diff bushings but for daily use didn't want the excess drivetrain noise . Will see how the new bushings I went with feel and go from there thanks for posting your feedback. And welcome to the Single Exit Exhaust family the bumper looks great!
The exhaust is on. 4in pie cut turn down. Sounds pretty good and love the way it looks.
Also got some Superpro roll control sway bars front and rear. Excited to see how these feel once installed.

What rear bumper is that? Also how did you delete the second exhaust pipe? Did you re do it all from the car back or did you just cut it close to the Y and block it off? I love the way it’s come together.
