Manual clutch pedal and brake pedal mounted up, had to drill 3 precise holes in the firewall for this... not fun.

shift cables needed the existing hole in the firewall enlarged as the auto only had 1 cable and the manual has 2, also got the shifter assembly mounted which i had to drill a hole in the base of the assembly in order to mount it

This is taking longer than i expected but i want to fix the car right and when i was younger i got into a little accident and i bent up the radiator support so i i figured mine as well replace it while everthing else is being done

and here we are today still in need of a lot of love

Installed some ebc ultimax rotors and ebc red stuff pads to help the accents ****ty factory braking, also ordered a borla pro xs muffler to swap out the Megan m-oe, to raspy for me

Picked up a spare motor for $150

Also came with all accessories, factory engine cover for an elantra and factory intake for a more sleeper look
Before:


After:


Not sure which setup I like more, no noticeable difference in power between the two intakes but the stock intake is slightly quiter
