unfortunately paint is at the bottom of the list right now. i have to fix the car mechanically from all the bastardization the previous owner did to it. like the cut springs or the quad tipped exhaust and even the CEL for the non-existant o2 but progress has come along pretty quickly i bought this car may 16th :-)

mD5

oh yea and does anyone know if there are some sort of support brackets under the headlights to hold the bumper up and get rid of that gap? i need to pick those up. mebbe someone can give me pictures of them and how they are mounted to the car. and does anyone want to get rid of an si lip? :-)

Looks good but I would have gotten sir bumpers.

mD5
