Oh yeah, what parts do you have that are waiting to be installed? I have been waiting to buy some parts I've wanted until my garage was ready. We may be able to figure out a way to save some cash on the install, and drink alot of beer at the same time.

Had a sway bar mounted last weekend. Teresa should be picking up the car the following Friday (March 3rd) and going directly to Steve's Autoclinic for her sway bar and new rubber. After that I have to mount her new strut bar, auto up window thingie, parcel shelf, aux input, IPod mounts, plus some other minor stuff. But I am all for doing it while drinking beer.

Oh OK...sounds like the hard stuff is over. Now, you have to drink enough to make installing that parcel shelf into a challenge. I'm trying to find someone as ambitious (or stupid?) as me to install springs/shocks and a sway bar at the same time. I've actually done springs and shocks on Acuras in the past, but it's been a while, and it's always good to have extra muscle for the sway bar.
I'm pretty impressed that you guys aren't even wasting time on the run flats on your new ride. I wish I wasn't so frugal and waited till they went bald to get some new rubber...it makes ALL the difference.

I will have to let him know. Also, I would be glad to help out with the install. I've never done any of it, but I am pretty good with a wrench and a beer.
It is still lefty loosey and righty tighty, right?
