Everything looks great, glad to see that you are having fun.

I suggest some sort of mask or filtration for when you are sanding and painting. Stuff is no good for your lungs.

I'm not sure why you want to run such stiff spring rates.

I went from 12k/10k fortune auto with swift springs, to 8k/6k GPSports with swift springs. Tucking rim on 17's with both setups, the 8k/6k rides way better, and doesn't bounce on bumps, thus making the low ride height even easier to drive with because it stays even with the ground instead of being so stiff and bouncy on the tires.

Quick update!
Some more parts primed. We're almost there! Should get off to paint in 15-20days! So excited!



Finalizing front fenders. Still a bit of work to do and widen them a bit.



Type-X Wing hole drilling. That's so awesome to bring out some parts you've almost forgot you had. Been a while all the parts have been prepped & primed ready to shoot.



One little selfie doing the putty on the inside of the hood. My friend who makes all the bodywork shows me things every single time. Feels so good to learn, and applicate techniques. We all have our forces, and sharing them is the most wonderful thing we could do.

Front fenders are almost ready! Was a dope day.
Widened & Personal custom touch.









We've also cut the inside lip of the fender & hammered it plate-to-plate to maximize clearance.



Here's the personal touch. I've always loved the S2K's J'S Racing fenders look. Like I've written before, my plans were to do a custom touch, without affecting the classic look.



Here's a little sneak peek from the side. I've always installed quickly the Chuki sideskirts.




Total car & parts should be primed for next weekend. Things are getting along!

I really like that last pic, it reminds me of the widened FD's front fenders. it's inspiring me to get rid of my FRP fenders and widen out my oem fenders and have them shaped to that flare.

great progress! kinda jealous your woman is helping you, all mine does now is get mad im spending more money on my car haha
