Nice build so far and good to see someone local on here. I am out in Centreville from the neighborhood pictures, it looks like you may be in Springfield, Alexandria or Falls Church.

Replaced old big brake kit with a much better set. Fit and finish are far superior. Name: image.jpg Views: 905 Size: 50.1 KB

You did a ton of work in a pretty short amount of time and it looks great. I like the combination of stock and custom features. Also, echoing 91short -- thank you for serving. One of my best friends is career Marine Corps. You guys sacrifice a lot.
