Is the Boss wheel any thicker than the standard wheel?  Maybe its just the pictures but I'm surprised it doesn't have more girth to it.

 

The shifter and e-brake boot look really nice!  Really lifts the interior!

Funny story but totally unrelated to anything but this picture.  Back in the late 90's my cousin was a trainer for the Chicago Bears.  I forget who it was but one of the players joked that he looked like the guy from powder (the movie the above picture is from).  It fit, cause he was a short, bald white guy in a sea monstrously big, predominantly black players.  The name wound up sticking and by the end of the 4-5 years he worked for them everyone from the players to the coaches to the office called him powder rather than his actual name.

The Boss wheel is the same thickness as stock, which is pretty thick... albeit close to "normal" thickness.  It feels thinner though for some reason.

I used to work with a guy that was hairless and pasty like Powder.  His name was Powder too lol.  I got called Casper by all the guys on my football team.

This has been corrected.  As soon as I can figure out how to host pictures correctly and post them, you'll have proof.

Google Images link, so it probably doesn't work...

 

Shortly after I did the suspension - Koni adjustable shocks and struts, BMR handling springs, BMR adjustable panhard bar, BMR non-adjustable lower control arms, BMW lower control arm relocation brackets, and MM caster/camber plates:

About 6 months later, fully settled:

Found some TruFiber carbon fiber hood vents that have been discontinued for a long time:

Car really needs another paint correction and ceramic coat, but I can't string together that many hours.  This weekend hopefully I will have the time to install the 2018 intake manifold, JLT series II CAI, LU47 injectors, and Li Tuning & Racing custom tune!

I tried directly copy/pasting the pictures.  See if that works.

Anyways... got the 2018 intake manifold, JLT series II cold air intake, LU47 injectors, and custom tune installed last night.  I am awaiting the tune revisions after I sent in the datalogs.  Butt dyno says all this is probably 60-70whp over stock.  Still waiting on the long tubes to come out of powdercoat.

Did brakes on the coyote a couple weeks ago. Went with StopTech rotors and pads:

Upgraded the rears to GT500 rotors (11.65" to 14"):

The finished product!

Also, I had help. It took way longer than it should have, but was the most fun brake job ever.

Next up powdercoated calipers, stainless hoses, separate clutch reservoir, and stainless clutch line... and the headers and stereo that have just been sitting around my garage.

Guess I stopped getting notifications through email that someone cares enough to post... so I am 4 months late to reply.  No, I'm not working on anything with a motor anytime soon.
