Default eflove's EK rebuild

well the hatch finally showed up dirty,broken and in bad shape after 5weeks! Well i couldn't let this icon of a hatch stay like that. I got right into it and started fixing and adding to it. This will be my build thread it wont be overnight like some but I have a full time job. I will take the time to make this car the way I want it. I'm sure you guys will let me know somethings I missed too.

How it looked after a wash and rear bumper put on.

Jesus.... and to think, I actually use to think that this car use to be pretty damn nice. But after seeing all of these photographs, it actually looks as though the paint work was pretty half assed. Kinda of makes me wonder what else was....

You got that right. Considering Jenson, the owner, works on ferraris for a living (seriously) it's in good hands.
