BTW, I got a chance to look at the core that ETS sent us, and what a beautiful piece of work. That's again Michael, we can't wait to fit that baby in the bumper.... or maybe fit the bumper around it.... that may be more appropriate

One of the things we have been waiting on is to get some parts back from paint, so we can get everything mocked up, trimmed and in place on the front end. Parts came back from paint yesterday, so it's time to make some progress.

Shaved corner markers...

Evo 9 front bumper...

Shaved trunk...

Don't forget to shave all of that rust off.

Hey now, we drive on salt infested roads all winter long, it's bound to happen

Don't worry, I'm sure it will be to your liking once it's all done.

Oh the salt is bad here too, but its never good to let a good thing go to waste if you can intervene.

We picked the car up as a rolling shell, and our baby will get lots of attention. Don't you worry

Final fabrication of radiator, and intercooler mounts was taken care of last night. Here are a couple of shots with the bumper on and off. The core sure fills the bumper nicely

Looks good! How is the intercooler mounted? Looks like it's floating

Haha, ok fine... I use the term "final fabrication" lightly because Kyle comes up with new ideas all the time. Here are some pictures of the intercooler with ALL mounting points on. The bottom has tabs that go back to, and bolt onto the rounded piping you see. Also, we've added the mounting points on the side as well.
