I am done buffing on this damn car. Well, sort of. I still have to scuff and repaint the front bumper because I didn't prep it properly. I have painted the rear sections of the side skirts, so I have to paint the two little front pieces. The "is" lip is painted, but I'll have to look at it and see how good it is, it was painted a while ago. The mtech1 wing is painted and I'll likely leave it as is.
Regardless, I am going to a Seahawks practice on Tuesday morning, so I must have this damn thing drivable by tomorrow. I just got my license back on Saturday after a year suspension, so I am anxious to drive it. All I have to do is put the bumpers on with turn signals, tail lights, spoilers, wipers and some trim. I also need to remove the rest of the tape and the damn adhesive that is left over from it. I used proper tape, but left it on there far too long. I'll get tabs tomorrow and drive the shit out of the thing. I should probably change the oil too...
Anyways, here are some shitty pictures from a little while ago. I finished cutting it and washed it so I can use the swirl remover and polish. Obviously it was getting late and the light was shit, so you get shit pictures. I'll take better ones tomorrow.

Welp, it has been a while. I did make it to the Hawks practice, and it was pretty cool. Their new facility on the lake is awesome.
The car is coming together slowly. I finally got the necessary clips and grometts so I could install the door mouldings. I installed the mtech1 spoiler, rear plate filler, euro bumper trim, iS side skirts, iS front lip and splitter, window trim and other random shit. I also got the rear headrests installed that I bought about three years ago.
Here is a shot in my mom's driveway. This is before wax so it doesn't have the greatest shine to it yet. It is starting to look like a complete car now though. I am really happy that I spent the money on the skirts, they look good.
And here is a shot of the same side after pulling it in the garage. I'll get pics of the front and other side of the car once I install the fogs, brake ducts, passenger side door mouldings and give it a coat of wax. It sure is nice being able to drive this thing after so long.

I didn't build this car to please people, I did it this way because that's how I like it.
