Default Anybody else slow to get it all installed?

I'm not lazy just really busy. I have no time during the week and sometimes little on weekends to install my mods. Currently in my garage I have a Roush strut bar, TCI rachet shifter, GT500 wing and JDM trans catch can all waiting to be installed. I had plans to get several of them installed this past weekend but unfortunatly I got food poisoning Thursday nite and by Sunday I had lost 19 lbs. and felt like total dog****. Not the best to way to loose weight IMO. So today after work I managed to remove the old wing. That factory tape is so much fun.... and install the strut bar.

Anybody else got stuff laying around just waiting to be installed?

I wish I had stuff laying around to put on! If I had stuff laying around, it would surely be put on right away! College is eating away all my money though. LOl

I don't know how you guys have the patience/willpower to wait and let the stuff pile up. I can't do it. I've been out in the freezing weather/rain/snow installing stuff because I'm impatient. The only way I have things sit in the garage is if I can't install it myself

I agree! When I do have the money to get something, it is on right away or I am finding a place that will put it on right away. Lol

I had a battery relocation kit and cut off switch sitting in my garage for so long I finally just dropped my car off at RET to have them do it. That's also the same excuse I gave my girlfriend to justify some more work i'm having them do. hahaha

I started having things shipped to my work just so they could sit in my office for a few hours rather than at home, waiting.

Hi my name is Alec and I have a modding problem....

I had a catch can sitting around for 8 months before I finally installed it this week. With the Whipple for the 2008, there just aren't any good mounting locations... so I just put it off. Also had the trunk mats and trim removed for about 4 months as I put off finishing the sound deadening mat, finished that up this past weekend. I've got lots of stuff I need to sell to make dollars for the next mod.
