Dude I dig that commitment to your quality to detail. I wish I had the experience with what parts do what so I could dial in my car like you are.
CHILD'S *EK* ... finally i have an EK

I might if I can find a genuine spoon wing brand new at the original price without a 3 month wait. That's the best offer i've gotten so far. Trying to keep away from replica parts. If it means an ugly roofline for awhile, then so be it.
I grew up in the valley in central Cali so all the mountain roads get you used to feeling what the car does at high speed. Speaking of high speed, that's really the only times most of this stuff makes a notable difference. That's why some people think some mods are pointless or not enough performance gained for the money.Dude I dig that commitment to your quality to detail.

I live in a pretty curvy road area, lots of windy roads. I could really tell difference with my tie bars even though it doesnt seem like it would make much of a difference

This may be a tadd off the current topic, but I seen your engine bay picture and it made me think about it. What kind of cleaner did/do you use to get that s**t so clean?! I want to start cleaning my bay up a bit come spring. Im thinking of removing cruise and power steering, my ac's already been pulled and ive already tucked away my fog lights wires, however, my bay is extremely dirty and greasy because the previous owner had it FULLY undercoated(not just the underneath, he did the bay and all
). So if I could pick up the same cleaner as you, or another that youd reccomend i could start on the clean up 
). So if I could pick up the same cleaner as you, or another that youd reccomend i could start on the clean up one day, I just might. My wife doesn't drive it. She's always worried that she might mess something up. She's just overly careful with things I dump money into.
I used simple green to start. Sprayed it all over and wiped it down, then washed the bay. I did it several times like every week or so when I first got the car until I finally had all the nasty stuff out of there. Then I did some coats of wax to give it some layer of protection. Now it all rinses clean easily. Super Clean, works really good too BUT that crap eats through paint..so if your clear coat isn't that thick I wouldn't use it. Plus it makes stainless or polished stuff get a ugly film look on them.This may be a tadd off the current topic, but I seen your engine bay picture and it made me think about it.

hmmm, alright. Thanks! I'll look into it.
lol I've been looking @ function7 LCAs trying to justify spending that much yack on em. This build just gave me another reason. BLANG BLANG!!
yeah they are shiny and all that, but they are very solid pieces. Lightweight but strong, you can even tell they are on a higher level just when holding them compared to other LCA's. I could feel and hear a difference with these bushings. Its soo much better than before, and I haven't heard of anyone having an issue with these ever. So let's see how they hold up to my abuse.
here's a couple of pics of the shift knob, since most photos are just of product demonstration for sales instead of being used in customer vehicles (which is one of the reasons i got this one)

Interesting shift knob!
the stickers are optional for the top of the shift knob. They are made with a pretty thick material too, so I don't think they will peel easily.
I didn't even think to weight it. It is a little bit lighter than the stock knob and not as talk as the stock one either.
he didnt relocate, he removed washer fluid

windshield washer lines

driver's side headlight harness
winshield wiper motor wires
A/C wires redirected for a cleaner look

(need some more electrical tape to wrap this end up)
