Can't imagine what that cost.

I paid $67.11 yesterday for 16.65 gallons of premium yesterday in Washington state. 2 months ago that was over $80

Thank you! And yes.. top grill was nightmare, haha.

I'm working on the cf bezels and canards currently... Removing the fog light bezels was also a huge pain but installing the carbon fiber ones are the things of nightmares!! I have half of one clipped in and took a break, lol.. Hopefully I can finish it up and have video done by this weekend but we'll see!

I've read that if you're not going to re use the fog light bezels it's easier to carefully cut them out. How are the CF ones a pain in the rear, don't they just snap right back into place?

Yes.. I actually did end up carefully cutting out the bezels, lol I also cut the tabs from the top grill to remove it, ick. Sucks as top grill sells for like $400 or something insane!

As for snapping right in... much harder than it sounds as the carbon fiber part has zero flex + lots of clips (different types of course) so it's hard to manipulate into place smoothly and have everything just snap in. Plus, carbon fiber piece maybe a tad larger because it's built off of a mold so tolerances are about 0.0000001mm or whatever.. and then u need to bear hug the bumper trying to hold it in place while pushing the bezel into place but also at a slight left angle (for the passenger side) as the clip tabs are not just straight they are angled, lol. IF I get this all in place, I'll def go over it in the part 3 video, haha. It would probably be easier if I laid the bumper face down and just body slammed it but I don't want to really tear up my bumper.

You have a chance to cut the slits for the taps on the dive planes yet?

Yes, I cut the slots.. pretty easy as they have the cut outs marked on the back of the bumper. Getting the bezels to snap in has thus far defeated me as I'm still unable to snap them in fully, lol :*(

Ended up abandoning the Trufiber bezels... can't get them to snap into place no matter what, so, ordered some zl1 1le oem bezels and will just run those with the Trufiber canards.

Had my SMG powder coated OEM calipers, Brake Performance slotted and dimpled rotors and pads installed.

Picked her up. Katech oil pump done. Pressure went from 35 under load and 17-22 hot idle to 40+ sustained under throttle and 35+ hot idle.

That makes me feel a bit better. Have the OEM pump in a bag, haven't had a chance to look at it yet. Maybe tomorrow.
