G.AWD.Zilla's Baby Steps Build

This will be a gradual build over time while I research mods and save up my allowance (mortgage and diapers come first)

That said, I couldn't resist having a little fun.

Special thanks to beto4632 for the DIY License Plate Tow Hook write up!
I'm not the world's best fabricator, but I think it turned out OK...






And thanks everyone on the forum for the insights, opinions and tips. Certainly learning a lot


11/19/2018:

First round of upgrades acquired and ready for install!



11/16/2019:

Apparently I like to work in November, ha!

Hotchkis sway bars in front & back.
Forgot to get pics of the front. Bad blogger!


Gotta get up to get down, yo


Surprised how small the OEM bar was


Ready to roll!

10/22/20

Stillen Trunk Wing installed! Plasti dipped for now until I'm ready to repaint trunk in addition to a few other parts.


11/30/20

And once again I'm working in November, lol

Door sill lights installed! Kit from forum member iCrap - love it!
