Default Install Day

After the car show, I decided that my car was clearly stock. I have a new exhaust that is on its was, as well as I would like to paint my calipers either yellow or blue. I was looking for an install day so the rest of the community can help me out. Does anyone know when the next install day is scheduled?

Awesome. Thanks. I might need some help at least with the exhaust before then. It "should" be here this weekend.

Because you still have the OEM exhaust, make sure you give the mounting screws a good soaking with liquid wrech. This should help loosen the bolts some. Even though we soaked the bolt on our last exhaust switch-out, we managed to still snap a bolt which then became a PITA

This install should be a breeze with the lift. But like 8-ball said, soak your bolts in advance.
