Default C&C plates: ATTN Code3GT

Hey my UPR C&C plates came today, the basic ones... by looking at them they made me very happy, very heavy and very strong construction, very nice looking as well

Now just gotta put them in! I'm thinking about tackling this tomorrow, but I'm not sure...

Code, have you put yours in yet? You had said you were going to soon... not sure if you got around to it yet


Assuming it's just a direct swap, how long roughly should it take? I figure with jacking it up, getting the wheels off etc maybe a few hours?

they should take maybe 30-45 minutes to install.... i did 4 struts/shocks on my car today in alittle under 2 hours with a couple 15 min breaks. although i used an impact. all you have to do is jack the car up, take the wheels off, and take off the upper strut bolts... then take out the other bolts... and drill through the rivet.
