Car's fixed and wheels are on :)

Post by Merzbow »

My baby is fixed. Cost the insurance company $4500. I got a new driver rear quarter, rear bumper, hatch, hatch glass and windshield. I also got my exhaust fixed. Finally it's starting to look good again after this winter's beating. I just need new tires, finish my system still, re wire the interior LEDs and I should be almost done with her! I still can't get over thee fact that I have a real matching rear bumper after all these years of having that crap spray painted one that the last body shop did a few years ago!!!! Every time I look at it I smile.Anyways, here are some pictures as she looks now.

Car looks so good. Perspectives on photos give me good ideas about doing a few for my '05.
