Idk if it will help but repaint your windshield wiper arms, they look a little scratched up. might add a bit to the cleanness.

That giant ass dent on the side is killing me, other than that its coming along great and looks like its going to be sexy soon! I look forward to the departure of all those nasty little things that bring the car down, like that dent for instance...
I'm getting hood pins because when the car was in the accident, the cable line that makes the hood latch work became loose and the hood latch itself doesn't work to completely close down the hood.
It's been a slow process and I wish I had more time and money to do everything sooner, but it will eventually get there slowly. It's all smogged now and ready to go. It's just the details that need to be worked on
Yeah, I'm going to do that. It's on my to do list because you can really notice that they're a different color with the rest of the car being black
That dent is definitely going to go! It looks horrible and it is getting rusty there. I'm going to try to push it out or else find a replacement door to slap on there. Do you by any chance know how I could take out that dent?
pull the door panel off and see if you can get to it with a rubber mallet,
I'll give that a try
Nice save bro. Maybe for looks you could go with black housing headlights and clear corners. And maybe the lip kit. I love that bumper with a lip kit! And jdm fogs.
I'm planning on getting a Spoon lip on the car. I'm trying to stick to Spoon accessories and add-ons, but we'll see how that works out. Black housing lights sound tight, but is it possible to do them myself?
I got some fog lights, but I haven't had the time to put them on the car yet, maybe this upcoming weekend I'll do it. These are the fog lights:
I took out the stock steering wheel and I am going to put a universal adapter and quick release with an aftermarket steering wheel. I'm going to try to sell the stock steering wheel and the SRS unit that was installed behind the stock steering wheel.
Installed new battery wiring because the wires that it originally had were worn out and we found a wire that wasn't connected correctly to the starter, so that was making the car not start some times. This weekend it'll be up and running and ready for insurance. It's about time to talk to those AAA people! I should have more updates soon

those are the same FOGS i got.. im going to install them tomorrow with the instructions you gave me.. and you should definitely should get some black housing headlights but no clear corners, get them amber and smoke them out.. i want to smoke mines out.. did you see the picture of my car with the black housing headlights and amber corners? take a look!
nice progress, the restore is great. I was feeling a bit sketch after the first few pics, but its coming along lol
Black housing headlights sound tight. I'm going to look into that for sure. I live in California, so I'm not sure if smoking out my corners is legal???
It's been one rough start that's for sure, but it's getting there. I'll hopefully be done one day haha
Those fogs will look good installed, can't wait to see pics.
