    This is how the car looked when I purchased it. This car was definately below par on in just about every category. I paid 2,100 for it which is a steal, basically paying for the H22A swap and getting the car free so I can't complain too much. I've invested roughly 1.5k in getting everything back to a acceptable state(with mostly cheap parts). I never took any shot's of it with the old exhaust on the car. The new one was already on and blinging in the back.


    Just one of the problem's; it was hanging up by the o2 wires, not bolted to the 4-2 header.

    The effect's of ??? miles without them hooked up. wth?



    I think we've got it looking a little better overall, it still needs a lot of work, my boyfriend fixed the drivers door damage and started working on some one-off thin side moldings(been short on time). He says they'll only take one day to make but it's getting that one full day free. The skirts are pretty beat up from the car being so low with the previous owner on the sh*tty local roads, need more clips in a bad way lol. Anyway on with the pictures!

    I need to get a new headon shot with the stock mirrors; those m3's are just strange.

    This was a quick sample molding he did for me to see what he wanted to do. Really hope to get them made soon, the green tape covering holes is getting old.


    We started doing a wire tuck tonight out of boredom, it was way to cold to fiberglass or we would have done the sidemoldings like I wanted to, but I think it's looking way better already. Spent about 4hours relocating the ABS fuse box to inside the car(2 wire's extended) and getting the rest routed out of sight. (2 holes drilled, one stock hole expanded). Only a few things left to do on the passenger side, then it's onto the driver's side, the engine harness will get cleaned up last and is in the worse shape by far lol.




    After we get the tuck done it's onto cleaning the hell out of the bay, gonna take a few bottles of soem high strength sh*t to clean this thing up. I'll relocate the battery as soon as we can buy an optima and simply make an aluminum box for it. I think that just about covers most of it so far. I'll update it as I go, thanks for reading!

                        I figured since you have no rust
                        wat?

                            Thanks guys! I'm hoping the weather will improve soon and he'll get them finished up quickly, I think he may be wanting to make molds of them for reproduction without need a car every time so that may take a bit, I'm not sure.

                            I'll get some photo's tonight of the quarter rust this things got, it had what looks to be an earl schieb(sp?) job done on it. It was just fiberglassed over and not cut and sectioned out like it should have been so that's one of the many things in need of redoing. It's bad enough that the bumper is starting to flare out on the sides.
