Lots of custom work remains before its under roof, plus about a year and a half of custom interior trim work.
I'll start making arrangements and check in with you spring of '25 LOL.. I know design and construction too so I can even earn my keep by helping if necessary.

Changed rear left hub bearing, basically a whole knuckle, it was a tough job, a lot of work, took me like 6 hrs.

So I was SUPPOSED to get my new tires today so that I could post pictures BUT they didn't make it to Discount today like they were supposed to. Hopefully they're arriving tomorrow but it won't be until late morning. They said they're so booked I'd be waiting a while so decided to reschedule for Monday. I'd rather not have them rushing and/or tired when they're doing it.

So in the mean time - here's a pic I meant to post a few weeks ago when she got her last hand washed bath until probably February/March. It'll be the touchless carwash until then...

Initial foam canon soak....



All done....

@jvirtu81 Certainly gives the triple beam look of the 2016+ models. Looks like you have the refreshed tails as well. Beautifully done!

Couple months ago got into a front-end "fender bender" and decided on buying two new OEM headlamps ($2500+). Ended up getting XPEL PPF to help keep them looking fresh. Are you considering any PPF on your new headlights?

@AJLex19 That I do; updated to GS-F tail lights.

Good call on the PPF, dropping the $$$ on OEM, should add that extra protection. I had not thought about it.
