...but hopefully it's good, lol.
I'll be sure to take plenty of pics before, after, and (time permitting) even during, the install.
UPS says they'll be here Friday. If so, I'll be swapping them on Saturday. I already have a tune loaded in the HPTuners waiting.

Got the headers today. Thank GOD the headers and pipes didn't look anything like the box did, lol.
I do already see an issue that'll need to be dealt with...the driver's side header has one primary tube that comes up higher than the rest (see pic), and it looks like I'll surely have a plug wire to header clearance issue there. I have everything loaded up so I can do the swap tomorrow at work. I'll try to get progress pics, but if not, I'll at least get pics of anywhere there is a clearance issue, or anything like that.
I will also put any info, pics, opinions, etc. in my own thread sometime tomorrow...
I will say that out of the box they "look" great. All welds look real nice. Header flanges are 3/8" thick, which is nice. I did notice that the Y pipe thickness is a bit on the thin side. Hopefully, that doesn't bite me in the *** sometime later down the road...

Any idea?
I assume you mean the Y pipe to manifold bolts?
150psi + 1/2" Ingersol Rand impact gun = LOOSE....or snap.
I'm just worried mainly about getting the O2 sensors out. I forgot to get some this week, and couldn't find any locally this afternoon.
