shaved the rear inner fender lips and sledged hammered the front ones to clear my new tire wheel combo.
reinstalled front grill and made some adjustments to the core support. removed fan shroud and took measurements to get an e-fan. called the machine shop and they are behind due to race season still and dealing with a customers build that didnt go together correctly. gotta say im not upset that my head has been pushed back due to this guys total upfront honesty.

Finally got the interior all put back together...Now it's time to tackle replace front brake rotors and pads!
i went to pick up a set of these i found on craiglist for $150,all i need now is finding a nice chrome center cap for them, any help will be greatlty appreciated .
