Lesson learned. At least changing studs is super simple. No cutting/notching or removing the Hub.

So far for quarantine/layoff from work I have done most of the black JDM pieces, except radio sides and steering wheel piece. I have also finally installed my Perrin intake tube and K&N oiled filter that have been sitting around since last fall.

I polished all the OEM steel tubes under the hood. I used mother's polish and a rag. It took some time, but you have that. Use a piece of masking tape on the rubber hose next to the crimp, some polish may discolor the rubber.

They will dull in finish over a year or so, but shine up with a quick wipe.

This picture is a lil dusty and hasn't been detail in awhile.

Under my cars hood is stock. Well I did the sound tube delete and added a drop-in k&n with a silicone inlet tube just to clean things up. I keep it clean though! :thanks:

My HVAC has been deleted. It's a "fair weather" car now. That's okay, it's matches the rubber :D

Bought my first exhaust since getting the car almost 5 years ago! Since I'm getting a new engine I figured I may as well get things done now.

Did some spring servicing. Replaced two studs, one on each front wheel, serviced the front and rear brakes. Adjusted the E-brake at the shoes, and tossed on the stock wheels.
