Been a little busy this week. Painted my calipers and installed the Ford Racing rear deck lid panel, Steeda no-tune-required CAI and replaced most of the white light bulbs with LEDs, including switchbacks in the front turn signals. Still need to install my Red Line hood struts.

In the short time you have had it, it's come along quickly! What did you use on the calipers?
Impressions on the Steeda? I'm awaiting my Roush CAI, I decided to go with that because it had a more OEM look to it.
Weds. I will be getting windows tinted and roof wrapped in gloss black. Tomorrow I'll probably install my GT350 Coil Covers.

On the calipers I used Duplicolor high temp Chevy Orange with their high temp clear. The orange is a nearly perfect match. I'm so glad I didn't have to spend $100+ for a G2 custom-matched kit like I had to do on my DIB 2014.
I just put the Steeda CAI late last night. While out today for the Toys for Tots event I will say that with the windows down you can hear a slight whistle-like sound when accelerating. Kinda cool. Can't hear anything at all with the windows up (note: I have removed my sound tube). I will say I can feel a very slight difference in performance, but I wasn't expecting anything noticeable since it's the no-tune version. Overall very satisfied with it.
Post pics once you've got the tint and roof done. That'll look sharp!

I have to post this and say that I can't think Clint enough for driving 3 hours and killing his entire weekend helping me out. I would still be trying to get 1 engine out if I was working by myself.
Started with these 2 on Saturday afternoon.
About midnight we had
Finally at 2am I told Clint that I was done, couldn't go anymore.
Yesterday we got back at it around 8:30 and by 4:15 I was firing the engine up in the black Cherokee.
Thanks to Alan for the care package he dropped off Thursday afternoon.

Nice work Jeff and Clint!
Bathroom progress. I got most of the plumbing operational. This is actually ceramic tile that looks like weathered barn wood. The pictures don't do it justice, going to be fantastic!
