Spent a lot of time sanding my life away over the weekend between the front grill and the dash, still nowhere near done. But at least found out late Friday night the wheels are done, for some reason they were posted like 8 hours earlier from the manufacturer

They agreed to do 12 wide in the rear originally with a 6" lip, but then they said it had to drop down to 11.5" with the 6" lip still because of availability. Then it changed to that they would have to lose the .5" out of the lip but could have them done quickly whereas if I stuck with 12" they had no idea how long they would be out since Ford had just bought up all the aluminum stock available

Today is like nudie magazine day for me, got my meats in preparation of getting the wheels delivered today. Then I am also finally getting these dongles that allow bluetooth connections through the head unit so hopefully I can finally get my air ride and headlights to work through the top head unit

Well the wheels didn't come yesterday, so today I got the wheels and the battery tray. It is different than I expected but the more I look at it the more I like it I guess

Forgot to mention I pulled the trigger on the wrap too, the 3M Atomic Teal came back in stock which I only found out after I tried to check out with the Avery Dennison Cool Satin Teal was sold out. I had wanted to make the Atomic Teal flat but they said it would be an extra grand to laminate it flat, so I decided to forgo that idea. Here's a couple examples of it
