Oh lets see.....Removed all timing belt items, removed all 4 brake rotors/pads/calipers, removed every plastic cover in the engine bay to paint them black after previous ownership liked bright yellow as an accent color, discovered that my radiator is shot, put in supra TT shocks and Tanabe Springs, removed ebay headlights, and ordered all new parts

MX4life Looks great! I did mine on Friday night as well. Make sure to bleed the entire system as a lot of air gets trapped in the lines afterwords.

Nice blue paint. Wheels look good, kind of understated. I like that.
