Pulled it all apart yesterday in like 45 minutes, all cosmetic thank god, Already ordered everything else needed... but if it isn’t already ironic enough, I was supposed to send the car to paint in October.Quote:

What I had to buy was a rad support but I got a whole support, bumper support for only 60$ from a friend. Getting a fender this week for like 30$ lol
No sadly, probably would’ve been well worth it... the reason why this happened is actually crazyQuote:

Thank you for the kind wishes & for everybody who cared to comment. I’m fine thank god & no one at all was injured, property was damaged for both parties but I’m handling things as best I can now.
I’ll be updating things in my build thread this week indefinitely explaining my future plans now and what’s happened since my last update on here [emoji53][emoji53][emoji53]

Purchased an eBay steering wrap and installed it myself patiently trying not to hurry at anything and enjoy the install.

Once done (about 2.5 hours) and cleaned up, I can say this is a modification is in the top 3. Why? Because you get to interact it with it during all speeds and even when the engine isn’t even on. It feels soooooo good!! The plus is the car smells like a brand new leather interior just from the wheel.

Got my car back.
Subframe work is done (stage 1 at least). Need to drive it more this weekend but first impressions is that it feels much more stable and solid in the rear. Less roll when under load and less squatting (could be due to work subframe bushings being replaced with solid). A mild increase in NVH but I wouldn't say it's enough to be a drawback.
Photo when I went to pick the old lad up. Photos as well of process.
I went with CMP Auto plates and subframe bushings. OE diff bushings. Attachment 35635Attachment 35636Attachment 35637Attachment 35638Attachment 35639
