yup, window and body trim first. Grill and badge later. I was thinking about doing the entire top half of the car from the hood line up but that might have to wait for v.3Quote:

Today Nic got eaten by his own car.

(In case you were wondering, the car was NOT jacked up with the OEM knuckle scraper, just wedged in for some backup!)
:like
Good plan. Always use a backup. And a backup, backup if you have it.Quote:

I'm not sure if this might already exist, but I think it would be a good idea to have a stickied thread of safe jacking procedure for our cars, updated with info for every method (lift, jackstands, OEM jack, floor jack, ramps, etc.)
Damn man... that's a tough story to read. Although I know for a fact my car was safely raised with the proper backups, I would much much prefer a lift.
I agree. I don't even go under my car.
Phew!!! It took a long time to get settled and everything, but I finally am back and able to work on my ZHP. First mod: Ohio License Plate mod :p
Finally got my new tires mounted/balanced and the car aligned. I bought Federal 595 EVO's for the ///M. (245/275)
I haven't really had a chance to push them yet, but I will report back once I have a couple thousand miles on them and some spirited driving. So far I can't complain. Road noise is slightly worse than my old Michelin Pilot Sport A/S's, but not too bad. Completely liveable.
