Just got a surprise delivery from the body shop so here's some teaser pics for the winter projects.

Meulen · 11-25-2013, 01:20 PM

Got the Z pretty much tucked away for the winter now. My CAI isn't back from powdercoating yet so I had to put the old air boxes on to get it started and run the stabil through it. Put some carpet squares under the tires too.

I've got the lights out and stripped. Haven't brought up the courage enough yet to break them apart yet. But, I did order the halo's and everything else for the project. The lenses are on back order for the second light so not sure when I'll get that.

Jim. I'm going totry and find some time this weekend to work on getting them apart. I'll help you with yours if that goes well. I owe you one anyhow!

Other than that, just waiting for some black friday deals to get some more parts for the winter projects!

Lenses came off back order already and halos came today!
