So, after about three to four months of owning this car I am finally now just getting around to posting this. I've been putting it off a lot but I feel the time is right. I've racked upwards of 150 pictures working on this car but I will try to keep it simple so I don't explode this thread.
This is how the car stands today.
This is day after buying the car, cleaned up nice had old rock hard sap ALL OVER! Little nail polish remover cleared them right up though.
Did a bunch of basic maintenance, basically made love to it for a weekend with a claybar.
After the clean up, got around to getting some smileys, euro grills, valence and brake ducts and plastic bumper. Wired everything up, city lights, highs, fogs. Use your imagination here though I lost alot of pictures to a phone swap.
Bought this while I was waiting for bumper to arrive (I'm noticing all the part out cars are zinno..)
Trimmed it up.
I call these flaming bird poop welds.
Got a bit crazy with seam sealer.
Getting around to the bumper.
Painting time!
Masked off the chrome, did all the trim
Homemade euro trim because I can
Flying home made euro trim
IS Lip
Letting things dry, have a little fun with seafoam.
Booty all done, not the best picture though.
Now for some small things added to the car recently.
New shiny coolant res.
New alt bushings to replace the melted ones.
Some things without pictures:
New shift boot
New shift nob
New radiator
Replaced timing belt, t-stat, wp
New billy shocks, and IE springs.
Trunk/Tail light gaskets
Ill try to be keeping this updated for now on, just had to catch up on all the things I've done. I think next up is interior!
