I just got in the front and rear strut tower braces. Took a few hours cuz I don't know what I'm doing and I had to grind the 'ell outta the bracket (for some computer thingy) to fit over the front strut tower brace.

I've yet to go for a drive, but I will soon.

ECU, piffle, it's in the way is what it is. But, I guess it's kinda important. I don't plan on lowering it any time soon, if at all. I want to be able to drive in the winter.

See that big black loom going to the ECU? My first instinct was to grab and yank to make it easier to place. But I didn't... go figure.

I drove it around for a while and took some turns going fast. There is a difference and I am pleased with how it feels.

When I did mine, I did the front first, loved it, waited a few months and did the rear, and loved the rear even more.

Why are there seatbelts in your trunk? do you let people ride back there?

lol, I put them there because I had my rear dash covered and there was no place to put them besides the trunk. Normally they are tied and bound in the trunk and no need for the belts.
