    Here's what it looked like when I bought it last year:

    Here's what it looked like in the winter after a front end fender bender:

    In the process of fixing it up:

    Now I've taken out the rust, installed new OEM front fenders, 89 wiper conversion, removed lower trim, painted it and reinstalled, removed body trim, filled in lower body line on bumpers, painted grill to match wheels.
    Enjoy :)

    thanks for the comments!

    mephtar i was looking at foglights today but don't worry, i'll stop there and not get the side kit since people would get our cars confused haha (but your car looks great with it btw).

    yeah allblacktrac i got a sweet deal on those fenders haha. i did everything but spray it and in total the bill was around 500. for sure we gotta have a meet though!

    my next plans are to tint the windows so i'm still deciding if i want to tackle that myself...

    i jsut tinted my front windows the otehr day, it was easyer than i thought but didnt turn out perfect. If your serious about doing it I can give you some tips I picked up along the way.

    Thats pretty much what i plan on doing to mine when i respray it, looks so much cleaner and better... Except i might do the door handles as well.

    When you do it, make sure you dont pull it too fast and peel the paint. And your going to have alot of fun getting rid the the shit underneath it! :D
