As for the wheels, maybe look at 17" if you don't want the larger wheels. Pretty common OEM tire size now (our denali has them).

Yeah the stereo is hooked up and the speakers sound very good. Thanks for the heads up about the 17"s, I just like both styles and I can't decide which would be best.

Talked my better half into helping me stick the backglass in... She did a great job, but the windshield is gonna take a pro... maybe two.

Made a fuse box cover... I don't know that I am done tweaking with it but you get the general idea.

I am going to wrap the wire and run them inside the upper fender to the front... I think it will hide them pretty good.

You guys think it fits in well with the rest of the engine bay?

Maybe not- my wife helped me with mine and it slid right in- just make sure you use something to lubricate the seal...

Looks good. Maybe turn it 90° so the wires go directly into the fender instead of down, then over?

Mags first, Vintecs second- nice timeless, classic look to both. Distant third to the street star- they just look like '90s billets to me...
