Thanks for the reply.

Did the trunk struts today. Not a big deal but they were kind of finicky. Easy, done in 30 minutes. Removing the backseat found a ton of broken safety glass....hmmm...one of the windows must have broken? A few missing seat bolts, someone had been in there before. Interesting. But trunk works great now, love it, doesn't OPEN (which I prefer), just open enough to unlatch.

I don't think I'm going to lower it. I live in an area with a ton of potholes, and I've been there done that on my past cars. Maybe, but doubtful.

As far as exhaust, my buddy who works at Midas cut out the leaky resonator and replaced it with a section of pipe. Car is quiet and sounds OK but a bit boring. I will probably be getting into an exhaust once I sort out all the rest of it.

I just installed the $170 for ALL FOUR rotors and pads, eBay special, pretty well rated. I took my time to do it right, this means scrubbing all mating surfaces to eliminate runout, replacing caliper slides if needed. They are just OK. They are better than the original rotors that were on there, but that's no surprise. They are drilled and slotted so I don't expect them to last long. I hope to get a year out of them. I wanted a cheap easy solution that would allow me to service and inspect the brake system. If I get a year, I'm happy.

Working on the F50 wheel swap now, I want the woodgrain, on my other thread I will keep everyone posted before doing a writeup when completed:

Thanks everyone!
