Default Update on my Mods.

Okay...the TT is finally in the shop (since yesterday)

Energy Dogbone bushings(~$20.00): DON'T LIKE IT, a tad too rough for my taste, but the oem's are worn out, need to order new ones.

Bilstein Sports Shox( $563.00 shipped): Scheduled to arrive today (Brown), will drop off the shop 2morrow.

Prozek Grille(~$320.00): Getting painted and installed as we speak.

Rieger1 front lip(~$300.00 pickup): Getting painted and installed as we speak.

Neuspeed Turbo Inlet Pipe (~$200.00): Installed --- 8 G*DD*MN hours! Feels Great.

DieselGeek Race SS ($140.00): A bit more force is needed to shift, but the shortness is great. Thanks for the bent nail :-)

Shop Labor is about $800.00-$1k because I also asked them to fix the driver side skirt.
