    Really appreciate the feedback guys. I absolutely love how this car is turning out...

    I guess ill keep updating this into my "build thread" Here is my next round of small mods

    Picked up a Billet Rad cap. This is sold as a 5th gen cap, but it fits the g8/ss cap. Dipstick and Billet washer cap on the way..

    And finally got my king springs in from australia to replace the eibachs. Hoping to have those on in the coming days.

    Some more slight updates...

    King Springs installed and fixed the reverse rake of the eibachs. Much better ride too.




    Engine bay is now 90% to my liking. Billet Washer cap, Coolant cap and Dip stick now installed. Still need to do something with the positive terminal. A stainless bolt kit for the fenders and grill covering also in the works..



    And lastly I picked up a set of 17 welds with a wimpy wimpy wimpy 26" et street R..

    Car looks great. The King Springs really do look better in keeping the front and rear gaps the same. Did you go with the Super Lows or the Ultra Lows?
