No way! I dropped it off on Saturday. What's yours going in for? Engine bay? Have those indicator lenses shown up by chance?

Looks great man, the engine bay looks so empty! The ZX's have a fuel damper factory just after the pump, you could try sourcing one of those maybe? How does the car sound now? The exhaust looks really good, what kind of muffler have you got on the back? Yeah I think I'll try the some sort of damper...
