MattMatthewZ Posted February 5, 2015 Author Share Posted February 5, 2015 I went back and fixed my broken pic links. They're still squished but open in a new window at a bigger size. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MattMatthewZ Posted February 5, 2015 Author Share Posted February 5, 2015 I got a new windshield and my rear hatch glass installed yesterday. I opted to have the professionals come out and do this job. Im glad I did because they did an amazing job. I used the Precision seals that I got with my weatherstrip kit and they thought they worked great. No gaps or anything. Still trying to decide to reinstall the metal trim.....

terse Posted April 18, 2015 Share Posted April 18, 2015 Do you have a list or excel file of the bolt sizes and hardware you purchased, and what parts they are for? Thanks for the kind words! I am in the process of making a list of all the hardware I bought. I ordered more than I needed so I just need to figure out what I didnt use. I will let you know. Hey Matt, been following your build for awhile... amazing work. Did you ever make a list of all the hardware you purchased? Would love to see that. Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rturbo 930 Posted May 13, 2015 Share Posted May 13, 2015 Why such high spring rates? That's about twice as stiff as you really need. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I just finished installing the fronts, now gotta do the rears. Your build is definitely inspiring ... mind I ask what your budget on this build is? or if you've surpassed that?
