Latest updates. Appears the bumpers are painted and in the sun. The side steps where inside the shop up high so I couldnt get a pic. The car was in the paint booth getting some minor dents and surface rust removed and being painted. Just placed my order today with Sewell for chrome bumper trim, lower door mouldings, rivets, clips, motor mounts, steering rack bushing kit, and windshield rubber trim. I also purchased the Daizen front bushing kit from TM Engineering. Purchased SPC adjustable upper arms for the front alignment and SPC rear camber kit for the rear from UltraRev.

I just noticed that spot on the bumper and not sure if its a chip or what. Will need to check it out next time I go by.
Was supposed to pick up my VarrsToen wheels tomorrow but they said the crates just arrived and need to organized. Hopefully I get them by the time the car is done so I go straight from the body shop to Sarno for the suspension and wheel install along with the motor mounts.

Thanks for the words. I chose not to paint the driver side because it looked good already and two body shops both suggested that also. Depending how well the color matches they may end up blending the bumpers and side step into the drivers side but wont know this until its all installed.
My windshield squirters had a couple clogs and build up so I put some drops of CLR on the holes to soak and they seem to be cleaning and clearing up well.
