Very nice on the suspension good job. Andreas would be proud. Also great going on the SAI. I took mine out as well. So how long did it take you with the motor in? I was fortunate and had the motor out.

EDIT: I just noticed you could do the engine sound pad with everything you have removed. Not trying to create any extra work, but you are there.

Albert,
I am speechless.

Apart from asking, what do you intend to do with the hub faces - they are steel, right?

Suspension is looking good.....

Please put some clean rags into the intake ports of the heads, seen many a time when something has been accidentally dropped something in there (nut, washer etc), not realized and caused some nasty damage to the engine...

Keep up the clean work!

They are not that expensive. I think $50-$60 from the dealer. There is an aftermarket supplier that people have used. The aftermarket piece is supposed to be better. A search may give you the results. Here is a pic of mine installed. This is the factory piece.

Andreas
Hubs are steel so I painted them with Rustoleum metallic silver paint to keep from rusting.

Towels are in all the intake ports, thanks.

Thanks for the pad suggestion, Mike. It is a bit ratty.
