^yeah i called them and told them a deer hit me and they wouldn't cover it.. But i got a question what do you guys think about wire tucking my bay when i get my GSR? I would like to remove p/s, cruise, relocate battery and fuse box and tuck all the wires i can but my dad said, "NOOO dont do any of that you need to try and keep that car as stock as you can." So if i did take out p/s and cruise can i put it back in easily or not?

You will have to get a manual steering rack and run new wires for the battery and fuse box, so its quite a bit more work to put everything back and you probably won't want to go through all that just to sell it if you get to that point. I personally like having all the luxury items in my em1 and I wouldn't ever strip it out as long as its my daily.

EDIT: And cruise is easy to remove, just vacuum lines, cable, and wiring.

They got the motor pulled out so today my friend and i went down there and cleaned the whole bay with engine de-greaser and simple green then i put tire shine everywhere in the bay and got it looking pretty damn clean wish i would of took some pictures... He said hes going to have the GSR in monday and then its going to the body shop tuesday. But today i saw the beautiful GSR sitting there with that wrinkle black valve cover and header heat sheild! Whooooooo it was looking fineeee! As for the wire tuck im keeping everything because its really not worth it but im am sooooo ready for my car to be done!
Heres what ive been daily driving about 10 miles a day to work and back lol it doesnt run too good but its a classic!

Did you have to change any lines to keep p/s or a/c? Like said before looks like factory fresh.
