After plenty of hard work all 4 are polished. They still need to be final cleaned ad waxed after the tires are mounted.

Removed the old pieces



Fully installed



Great clearance overall

Car looks good. The Innovative competition bar is definately a nice piece. I have 1 on each car. Just a tip though make sure you check the bolts once in a while. I saw mine backing out once.

What brand front LCA's did you go with?

Great choice on the bar. I have one and zero complaints (aside from occasional noise).

Glad to see this is coming along. Car is looking better and better.

The creaking is RIDICULOUS on some occasions. I actually think something is wrong every now and again. haha. Other than that, it's a great bar.

The car is looking good man! Have any shots of what else showed up at the meet?

If I say I'm not jealous I'm a liar. Absolutely L O V E the car and how you're cleaning up everything so nicely. Also quite impressed with the outcome of the spray work. Good job
Question though:
Is that a rust bubble right where the right fender meets with the bumper? Couldn't help but notice
