Over all it was fun to do it yourself.

So how was the fitment?.. did you have to use a breaker bar?
And do the brackets fit nice?...
Edit: The studs are a pita, arent they...

I would not trust some "joe" off the street with my Z...
I need references and qc history before I will let anyone work on my car. And i dont think that I would be able to complete this without causing damage to the paint..I just dont have the experience..

That fender rolling looks simple enough to me, just go slow.
I have done body work before. (my Pinto was a rust bucket) Changed a clutch and flywheel, many exhuast in the day, breaks and stuff like that. With the family life its just to busy to work on the car much.

No I was not putting on the cats LOL. I will take that in. To much trouble to jack it up in this weather and stuff. It will be worth the 1 hour rate to have the shop do it.
We all need a nice garage with a lift to play with our cars.
Lets get Mike to buy one when he gets his new house and we can all go over and use it. hahaha
