Boom's Boosted Bullitt

Midas told me to kick rocks. Said the cars too low. I have another appointment with a shop that specializes in Ferraris and Lambos. I sure that will be reflected in their pricing too :rolleyes:
 
Well have to wait and see in the morning.

The shop here is very nice. They do both body work and auto repair.

The alignment guy has the car ready and pulled the current specs. But doesn't want to start it this late in the day. It's there and will be knocked out first thing.

I am a bit bummed the caliper is leaking. I've been looking at some options.

Ordered new parking brake cables. The old ones were so tight they bent the clamps when activating the parking brake so the cables are rubbing on the tires.

Seems the 98 and earlier cars had cables that were an inch longer but had the same rear calipers. Got them on the way and may have to reroute the cables to reduce the tension.

I also have a couple easy (lol) parts to install. I have a full length radiator cover to install. It covers the area on top of the headlights too. The stock one only covers the grill/radiator area. That part generally removes the prop rod so I found a company (MRT) that offers a bolt on hood strut kit. They even offer them painted in factory colors. If you call they have a handful of preprinted ones on the shelf they'll give you for the normal black finish cost.

They oddly didn't have the 01 Bullitt paint code, but they had a set for an 01 with the 08 Bullitt paint code. 01 was more metallic and a bit lighter. Figured it'd be close enough to not notice the difference. I'm hoping these fit without issue, they did say certain camber plates may interfere.
