New parts should be ready next week so if all goes good, should have some updated pics on 17th

Well I finally got all my parts OFF!
Good news - No frame damage
Bad news - Still waiting on parts but they should be done soon.

Thank god man, no frame damage. Good luck with the new parts! You made the right choice.

I finally got around to doing the heater hose relocation (was pretty easy with the whole front end off)
Engine looks better with out the heater hose's on top of the intake
Now I just need to flip the fuel rail! that's soon though

Yea I was worried about the frame, that bumper had no absorber so the impact transferred strait to the frame.

Just got off the phone with my body shop guy. Will be picking up my parts tomorrow!

DCC1464 · 11-25-2012, 03:02 PM

Well my plan for the bumper is not going to work so for now I'm gonna leave it as is and go back to the drawing board on it. Plan was to use the cross member from my ltz fog ports and put that in the zl1 fog housing but it's not deep as I thought it was so now I got to figure out a new idea

DCC1464 · 12-05-2012, 03:35 AM

Sweet! How that work out for you???!

DCC1464 · 12-07-2012, 02:27 AM

Install was very easy. I can see the increase in throttle response but not sure yet if I understand all the hype. Not displeased but not sure on where everyone get that butt dyno increase from
I finally got the car all washed so pics to come tomorrow
