    Looks great so far. Can't wait to see it done. That is an awesome deal on the windshield. Wish I could find a deal like that for mine. I need both front and back windshields.

    About time you had some news like this. If it looks half as good in person as it does in the cell pics, I think you're golden. What a beautiful color. Congrats man!

  9. I like it , you get the trim and bumpers back on it , put some "proper" wheels on and its really going to look sharp . Well done .

    It's 8.30am Saturday morning here , "Are we Toasting yet?" :D

    We are still toasting right, cause I am right now :). Well my Ducking luck continues...the guy that was getting me front and back windshields for $130 each was full of #*$&...4 months I been thinking I was getting them, find out today, NOPE. $400 each from them. WTF, man I cant catch a break. I know that was a "bonus" type of situation, but I sure was looking forward to it and now $800 for 2 windshields was NOT in the budget.
