More progress Thanks for all the help njfboa
Cars coming along slowly but surely and even after the bs im still here getting advise from you all because you guys are a great group of knowledgable guys and I do appreciate that. Heres a few pics from yesterdays progress tom I will take better pictures of the front being done with the wheels on and showing how nicely the car sits lowered.
I did take justin or tims advice with the brake lines and got new stainless steel hoses and bent up my own hardlines for cheap. Diff additive and some fresh fluid in the rear with a new cover gasket. Painted the calipers. New dropzone lowering springs (less than 2k miles on the new shocks and struts-from last summers progress) adjustable pan hard bar.
Heres the pics! More to come tomorrow!

You need to go to spray paint counseling my man.
Put down the spray paint, and step away from the can.

My family feels the same way...that comment had me chuckling for a good few minutes only because its so true.
Oh believe me I CANT wait untill the front is on and the motors in so it has the full weight resting on those new springs either
Soon enough gentlemen we shall see that day!

Never saw those c5 wheels on a third gen. Nice touch if you decide to keep them on there.
