Before I got her.
I bought my car from the wife and my good Friends Anna and Dave back in March 09
The first thing I did was tear out the awful yellow fabric that the panels were wrapped in! now it is stock (sorry no pics)
first warm day got her all clean, took some polishing compound and wax to her
swapped out the snow tires for the summer shoes. 17" Volution Racing wheels wrapped in 205/45R17 Bridgestone Potenzas. got rid of the mesh grilles and threw on the stock tails and a set of projector fog lights from auto zone
EBay Cold Air intake (chromeairintakes.com)
Than I got rid of the red tubeing and cleaned up the engine bay
I swapped out the M3 mirrors for the stock power mirrors. I took a chunk out of the bridgestones so I threw the stock snowflakes back on with a set of new Goodyear Eagle GTs. I also took of the rear bumper and side skirts. I also got a can of niteshades and tinted the clear corners, tails and turn signals. (cant tell with turns and tails, I did not go too dark)
Welded up the holes where the wing used to be and the key hole (key did not work anyways) and gave the trunk lid a quick spray bomb primer job (will be painting soon just want to get body work done and the kit back on)
notice anything missing? (other than the kit) the right side resonator tip and elbow rusted off and was lost somewhere, folllowed by the left a week later. it gave her a little deeper tone, lol, just one more thing to fix / replace... at least it looks like the muffler is not rusted (stainless magnaflow) so I Got a couple bent pieces from Advance sprayed them with VHT flame proof (black) and clamped them on and popped a rivet in em.
The starter went, so after changing it and finding the new one was junk (the clutch safety connector was broken) I got to change it a second time. not hard to do but with the parts store 30 miles away what a PITA!!!
Projector headlights! me and my got them in and wired, the Leds are hooked to the indicators and the Halos are hooked to the parking lights. They need adjusting but they put more light down the road than the stock parts.
PIAA ion yellow High beams.
I just picked up some urethane glue and rivets. so body kit is going back on soon!!! also got the remote start hooked up, no pics, not much to show there, just basic 2way system.
Later
