The vents look good. Are they functional vents and have you noticed any temp difference?

Yea they're functional, I wouldn't waste my time just for looks lol.. I was having some problems with it getting warm before, between this and fixing some sketchy fan wiring I haven't had any issues. You can certainly feel the heat coming out of the vents.

I figured they were. After asking I realized it was really just a dumb question on my part. Hopefully someone at least smiled at it. ... LOL

The lift kit? The front was a breeze really. The back wasn't TOO bad until we got to the top shock tower bolts, had to cut a couple of them. I'd try to soak in some PB Blaster for a week prior or something, the small amount of time we let it sit on there didn't help much.
