Well, it wasnt today, but a few days ago I ditched my Mustang Cobra R replica wheels for something more suitable for the SC570. Full set of Weld Draglites. 15x8 rears with 275/50/15 Nitto NT555r Drag radials, 15x4 fronts 185/80/15 Nankangs. Front runners need a spacer to clear the stock brakes, but minimal tire spin now vs. no traction 1st-3rd with the old 295/35/17 Kumho Ecsta XS's.
Excuse the crappy pic.

My Strongarm trunk lift supports just came in and the door trims and A-pillar I bought off of a member of CL just came in aswell. Waiting for my speakers to come in tomorrow or Friday and I'll begin replacing everything this weekend.

In the middle of a auto shifter conversion, taking forever to grind metal down with just a dremel, had to take a break. will post pics when done, although my 5speed bezel hasn't come in yet.

1. Factory pioneer amp took a dump so used FAQ to rewire and install cheap Alpine head unit from ebay.
2. Car started making weird noise at around 2k rpm. Thought belt was slipping so got new belt from NAPA. Still made noise so thought tensioner was bad. Swapped that out and still did the same thing. Crawled under car and found a loose heat shield right next to cat. Used some hose clamps and good to go.
3. Swapped Gold emblems with Chrome
4. Wax
5. Now got CEL so have to make a trip to Autozone.

it was about a 5-6 hour job so including the kit it was $703. The shop I use is very skilled and specializes in our cars and I have been really pleased with their work. They even sponsor the NorCal CL web page and in their lobby they have a board with pictures dedicated to CL member's cars.
