Do you ever feel you have just TOO MUCH stuff waiting to go on your Legend?

I say that as I'm looking around at all the stuff I need to finish fabbing up and/or install. Honestly, I would need about a good, solid WEEK of work to knock out a lot of my projects, and that's not even counting the engine swap! The fun never ends, I tell ya!

This is for the parts I have on hand right now:

-E55 HID retrofit that I've been d*cking around with for a better part of a year.
-94/95 front bumper install
-fog light install
-JDM navi install
-carpc w/touchscreen install
-TL seat install, which includes wiring them to the G2 memory button and heated seat switch
-speaker (horns), amps (2) EQ install, then wiring to the CarPc
-measure/cut/reupholster MDF and finish wiring of the actuator to a switch for stealth box cover to hide it
-BBK install (when the rotors/brackets arrive in a couple weeks)
-c35 install (which I'm holding off on until Kyle's pulleys are fabbed), which still needs the Webcams installed in it.
-carpet pull and dye

I'm also relocating the battery using 3 motorcycle dry cells when they come in in a week. My brother and some friends are going to come over in a couple weeks (hopefully) so we can finish out the stereo. So many things going on at the same time, sometimes it's hard to get a grip. One projects flows into the other so many times, that it doesn't make sense to do something until you have both things ready. IE, replacing the bumper....logic would dictate that I install the fog lights and head lights at the same time, but I'm waiting for some add'l information on the retrofit, so all 3 projects are held up.

Yes, too many! I am literally sleeping on all the pending things I have for the Coupe. All the parts I need to get installed are underneath my bed! At least I have the parts than not, call it a reservation.

Time is definitely not on my side.

I ran out of room in the garage, so the front bumper/fog light/head light/JDM navi stuff is all the living room/formal dining room. My wife is going to kill me in the not too distant future

I wish i had your dillema! That sounds like more than a week's worth of installs, and I'm pretty savy(though maybe I take too many beer breaks )

man your list is pretty brutal.

mine isn't awesome either

re wrap front seats with new katzkin
pull carpet and steam clean/pressure wash
fix cracks in dash ( small but there)
front bumper repaint ( buying a bra put this one off a bit)
both corners and bumper lights (have junkyard pulled oems but decided to order some clears)
springs and struts*drop* ( just gotta find the time )
steering wheel wrap
replace missing plastic spare tire cover hold down( anyone? anyone?)

repaint rear bumper ( very slight cracking on top surface )
a buncha little tiny dings around the car ( never been in an accident but plenty of parking lots)
H center caps
led cluster REDO, including changing out my speedo ( all other gauges type 2 already)

thats basically my summer worth of plans..

didn't mean to threadjack in any way. just got me thinking.....

I work full time and have a kid The only time I really have during the week is in the morning (getting up w/the wife @ 515) and working on stuff until ~620 when I get him up and send him off to school (650), and then I get about 1.5 hours more before I get ready to go to work. Then at night between 8-9. And that's provided I'm not involved with any of my other interests.

But, I guess there are worse things. It just seemed to really hit me how much I have stacked up to do.
