Now I just need to put my new hood on it. Lol.
I did the mirrors as well. did you have to use longer/larger screws? The factory ones wouldn't work for me. they wouldn't bite into the plastic well enough to hold with the little seal gaskets on there. I got brand new mirrors though

Took it to the car wash. Sprayed the water pump pulley with some fluid film because it squeaks and is annoying as all get out

Wanna spray some more water in my engine this week, do a seafoam run (maybe) and change the IAC. Tired of cleaning it and my idle has been slightly rough lately and a slight stumble at idle once and a while . Still runs great though
