i remember when i started polishing my LS400 calipers a couple months back.....that lasted about 1 week, then i said "F this" and just dropped them off to get powdercoated, lol. Sometimes i still wish i had them polished. Cant wait to see yours come out perfect.

good ish to far. loving the painted inner barrels on the equips..

Slow, but that doesnt mean bad. We are just doing things the right way.

Motor was cleaned and checked and rechecked.
All the AC lines are now mirror polished.
All the accessories are cleaned and polished.
New plugs, wires, caps and rotors.
ALL new plastic covers.
Painted block.
Powder coated the Superchargers, replaced the barrings in it as well.
Aluminum Rad is mocked up and in place
Electric fans are wired in
making a flow director plate from the bumper to the 'Rad

the list goes on and on, but its all minor touch's that take alot of time but in the end will make for a perfect finished project.

I just spent 1900$ on materials for my exhaust. Its going to be pretty crazy I will keep you all updated on how that goes. You know im all about great sounding exhaust's seeing how this will be the 5th time iv changed it since iv owned the car
