i figure ill start takin the dash out this week, and probably start ordering some parts. good idea painting the engine bay, it looks a million times better all cleaned up with some clear over the paint.

Griff, skid plates are over rated! I've been driving the contour without one for a couple of years now. Mine supposedly protect the gas tank when the rear comes down on dead-hooking.
It might actually fit your Z, now that I think about it. I'll sell it to you for $550. Let me know and I'll let you check it out this weekend.
