Productive night for a change of events... I'll hold my breath until it's done though. Big thanks to Cabell. I thought he was leaving for the weekend, but he decided to relax for once
New bearing and previously new flange was pressed in used hub I bought today at the local shop. Owner of the shop has a CTS-V coupe. Making 657whp.. full bolt on and tune lol. I assume National Speed probably has done some work to that car since they recommended the shop. Super cool owner. Price was right, done in an hour, and staff were cool
Also, this used hub a bought is in such good condition for the price.... I was surprised why it was so cheap. Probably not many people are swapping whole knuckles lol.
Was able to get the spindle in, new arm in, etc without a fight. Doing it a couple times probably has helped lol. Both sides are all torqued down. Bolts are marked. The car can finally be on all 4's

While I was working in the rear Cabell figured out just a simple way to bolt up fog light covers that are easily removable. Just a metal bracket with a bolt/nut. We both finished stuff off and moved to window brackets

Few measurements, test fit, several re-measure, different holes drilled, etc. we finally got a decently working prototype.

We'll finish the windows tomorrow and move on to hood vents. Praying [emoji120] to the car God's for some easier times and finishing touches for tomorrow
