Mine won't be quite that pretty when I am done with them, but I am not powdercoating them, only paint.

Fresh state inspection and emission stickers on her. Also finally did a quick alignment, the car is actually enjoyable to drive now instead of all over the damn road.

Well, hit 180 miles (odometer, not MPH obviously) on the bike today. Itching for this damn break in period to be over with already.
Also installed frame sliders as well, and adjusted the dampener to around what it should be for a 180-200 pound rider.. Won't save much in the event of an accident, but there are no case sliders or anything else really for the bike yet (also not sure if it'd be worth it.) The instructions/directions for installing the frame sliders were not very clear, has me on the fence about purchasing the OEM service manual now since I have no guarantees it will be any better. Still likely worth it vs paying for having service done.
Mods: 2g 3k body conversion, 2g Brake upgrade, Rota P45R rims
Projects: Interior sound deadening, 14Bs, forged bottom end, custom radiator and sound mounts
Haven't touched the Stealth in a few days. I did finish sandblasting some things on Friday.
After sandblasting, I came home and cleaned up the Grand Prix. I took each wheel off, one at a time, scrubbed the inside of the wheel and the wheel wells, then used tire wet on the wheel wells and reinstalled the wheels with new shiny lugnuts. Saturday I went over to my uncle's and put a coat of black wax on it and shined it up nice. Then I put it in a car show at the local VFD.
While at the car show I recognized a guy that did powdercoating for the one company I used to work for. He had cards out on his car for his powdercoating business as well. I got to talking to him and asked what he'd charge me to powdercoat my brake calipers and he told me if I had them all cleaned up and torn apart for him he'd do them for $40 a pair.I told him I'd be getting in touch with him very soon.
