I am trying my best to get this started by summer. Plan is single turbo, auto tranny, 500whp and call it a day. It's obviously not 100% green light to start yet, so dont get your hopes up, but my hopes are sky high right now. lol Next big car show is in August (hot import nights Dallas) which i could skip out, but especially want it for Wekfest Texas this fall. I know it will be a long swap if i follow through.

Not for a long while....just bought a house and get the keys tomorrow (if everything goes as planned). So now my new mods are a new roof for 11K, fully remodel a master bath at 7K, paint the whole interior of home 1K, new deck 5K, carpets in bedrooms 2K. Maybe a hot tub also! See where I'm going with this?

Whats the new bumper? I just got the ISF front conversion. I'll be wrapping my fog light covers like you did. What did you use for the clear coat?

New bumper is JDM goodness. lol

I just wet sanded and buffed the clear epoxy and that was my "clear coat", you dont have to use a dedicated clear, the epoxy works just fine as your final coat.
