youre either paying a shop a LOT of money and they arent gonna finish it right, or they are good fabricators. OR your doing it yourself and you are still gonna have to fab up a lot of stuff, but it will cost a lot less, and there is answers for everything you could imagine on this forum.

check out the how to's, or better yet, since your in FL, go find our buddy juan (oss) and chat with him, he has a super clean b16 in his 3g.

good luck, sounds like your going to need it.

ps. welcome to the board. you get +1 cause your first post is about performance at least, instead of body kit bs.

and another +1 cause this thread is in exactly the right spot! hehe
