Ha, it was pretty big! I couldn't stop checking out the gauges to make sure oil pressure was safe. So far, so good!

Thanks! Me too, man! It has to be problem free after what I've gone through.

Detailed the car finally last night and took it down to the beach for lunch today. Still have quite a lot of work left to do... This weekend, I attempted to install the BlueBatmobile overlays. I was successful in applying the tint on the rear quarter side markers and reverse lights, but failed miserably on the taillight, so I ripped it off and will buy another pair and have a tint shop install them...damned curved taillights! I changed out the gauge/climate control lighting for white LEDs, along with the dome/trunk/license plate lights...then realized I need one more for the footwell. I also changed the fogs with 30-LED bulbs to match the 6k HIDs I just finished installing. I installed the painted center console pieces along with the new MGW shifter/knob...what a HUGE difference in throws!

Some comparison/install pictures:

Good comparison of the yellowish halogen bulbs in the gauges

And stopped to see the new 2013 on the way to the beach

It's nice to see your car up and running again.

Looks great. Glad you have it back on the road. Man that thing is low though. I would almost be afraid to drive it.
