Some repairs:
- Replaced front driver & passenger window seal strips. I pulled them used off a 04 corolla, and they fit perfectly. I used 3M black trim tape, which is what they originally come with, but I placed the trim tape on both corners.
- Two lower grills from a junkyard, they were missing when I got the car.
- Antenna from a junk yard
- Generic fabric floor mats.
- Exhaust pipe flange fix.
- Fixed center console hinges.
- A rubber all-season floor mat for the driver's side.
- Door stop for the driver's side door. The old one didn't slow the door and it would fly open with the slightest touch.
- Put some older speakers in the front to replace the non-functioning ones.
- The bar in front of the radiator and below the hood latch.
- Radiator and upper hose.
- Moog sway bars, control arms, monroe struts for front.
- Did my own wheel bearings for the front
- New radio head unit, found in a junkyard
- Power steering flush done by myself
- Replaced both front fender liners with junkyard ones (that don't have the holes in them).
- Aftermarket Kenwood stereo found in a junkyard
- 12V center console constant on, with a switch in the glove compartment to switch it on and off
- Changed gauge cluster white labels to blue using blue masking tape.
- Painted engine cover and some interior panels with blue metallic paint (almost done)
- LED third high brake light
- LEDs in dash controls
- A dual nozzle sprayer for the rear window. I like it better than the single nozzle sprayer. To replace without scratching the paint, use a pair of old credit or gift cards on either side of the sprayer.
- Fog lights
- Halos/HIDs for headlights
- spoiler
- Window tinting?
- Lower struts or bigger tires/wheels
- Taillight mods
