the clutch and brake pedals were very easy. Just had to slip off the original rubber pedal, put the mugen over top and screw in two screws for each pedal.

The accelerator pedal was pretty straight forward as well but was definitely more tedious. First you have to place a rubber template over the original pedal and mark off three dots where you have to drill through. Then place a couple brackets in between the two layers of the original pedal and insert three rivets through the pedal, brackets and the mugen pedal. Then had to use a rivet tool to finish off the job...

might sound a little complicated, but the actual instructions did a much better job of explaining how to do it lol.

Thanks! Installation of the shark fin antenna was pretty simple. Just had to unscrew the oem antenna, attach a wire from the original antenna base to inside the shark fin housing, clean the area where the fin will be placed, peel off the adhesive from the base of the fin and stick it in place.

It came painted already. The hardest part was making sure it was on straight

YES I completely agree with you guys lol. I do have plans to purchase new wheels next summer along with a set of tires and a drop. But as a temporary replacement, I give you my winter setup:
