Thanks Ryan you can cut the pictures back off now. /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif
There's well over 1000lbs of stuff there. The one with all the boards on top was between 6 and 8 hundred by itself. The interior was around 300 and the tall headliner one was about 150.
I can't beleave I have so much room now in the garage its kind of strange. I've had the hood here for about a year and some of the other stuff since before alex shipped out. I'm going to get the lawn mower out tomorrow I may launch it through the middle of the garage now that I can.

I didn't even notice it. /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/rofl.gif
As for the wing I got it from a friend he had it when he bought the evo and it was the factory replacement one and not the real deal carbon fiber . Many may not know but the real ones had a debonding issue and we're recalled if they damage was bad. they replaced them with abs sides and a carbon fibered sticker one. There the same size except the real deal is thin in the middle and these block the view. I'm rying to get use to it but the side view just don't do it for me like the rear view does. Thanks for approval rating.

If you remember I wanted some photoshop guy to do a black car with a big mad max looking rally push bar. Well I could build it until the other stuff left so now its gone and my ups girl delievered this.
times 4 of these monsters. Black when off bright as the sun when on. H2 bulbs after Paul ordered these we found HID ones. /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/banghead.gif
The push bar will be built so when he wants to remove it it simply un pin with aircraft saftey pins and can hang from a soccer stadium. /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif
I forgot to turn off the flash for the true black effect. You can look up hella black magics on google they'll show up.

14.5 hours from now. I just figured the time offset. Paul is 13 hours ahead on US central time. I want pictures as santa unloads the sleigh. /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif
+1, Must be like Christmas for Paul. Lets hope that the shipping company treats the packages better then what UPS does.

Hey I used to work for UPS .... and I resemble that statement LOL
What can I say when the supervisor is breathing down your neck and you loading a 2 trailors (the long 18 wheelers) and over 3000 packages per truck sometimes you get tired and stressed and take it out on the packages.

Sorry guys it has been all steam ahead. Garage space in Hong Kong is minimal. After we unpacked we had to pack all the stuff into a corner to give my friend room to work and then we had to ferry those smart bins back to my place and store them on my flat roof. It was pouring with rain at the time and the Type-R got hit by freak hail (or stones thrown up by the wind) which caused a load of paint chips on the hood and cracked the windshield in two places /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/banghead.gif
Today the aerial went into the roof and we fitted the new suede headliner. Got the cage back in only to find it was hitting the vanity light (should have left the light out /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/banghead.gif) Having already cut a hole in the headliner we had to shift it back extending the hole and then fabricate a bezel out of an old number plate to cover the hole in the liner. I think we did a pretty good job. Measured 10 times cut once and the bezel looks factory.
Pictures. Yeah I know I will but honestly after almost three years on jack stands, I am embarrassed to show pictures of the car as it was this morning. Let me wipe the dust off and show a before picture before we start fitting more stuff.
Tomorrow the C and B pillars go in. We fit the Alpine Controller into the headliner (subject to space) run the wires and then fix the roll cage in place. Then it's re-applying sound deadening, dying and fitting the carpet and then the seats.
We will need to do some work on the door cards and rear parcel shelf but interior should be pretty quick (centre console aside - still working on that!)
