Got the bars on and everything buttoned up.

Weird thing, one of the studs/nuts on the front bar stripped when I was putting them back on. Basically as I was torquing it down the threads gave out so the nut was just spinning.

I had to cut the nut and press the stud out. Just replaced it with a bolt and nut. Whole thing only added about 10 minutes of work, but geez. I'm thinking when I tear it all down in a few weeks for coilovers I may replace all the studs with grade 8 flange bolts and nuts, the stock studs are made from like pot metal or something. Super soft.
