Face lift done, still pluggin' along.

So today I finally got the lip on. Still want to do the extractor hood, but since I don't have the turbo yet, theres no rush.



This is an LS with an SS/NA facia, SS/TC grill set, RK Sport lip, and black Halo first gen headlights. The RK Sport lip actually fits the SS facia better then it does the LS. I've done 3 of them now. And this time I made some beefier skid plates for the edge that really beat against the ground without damaging the lip at all.

Next move for me is either more suspension work or wheels and tires. I'm searching the web for a set of FE5 aluminum front control arms from salvage that I can clean up and paint / powder coat before installing. I want to do it along with a sway bar upgrade, so I'm still hoping Eibach comes out with their set sometime this decade. If the tires wear out before that, I'll do wheels and tires first. I'm at 40K and 3 years on the original rubber and they are still pretty good. They've got at least a year left in them.

And now for something completely random.

I saw these massive windmill blades on the interstate today and got a pretty good picture. I've never seen anything like that before.
