This thread will be based on appearance only. Hope you guys like the progress I have made so far. Let me know what you think.
When I bought the car in April of 2012 for 1200$. 165,000 miles, rust all over, dents all over.
A shot of the car mid-body work. Also tail lights tinted red pre-body work.
After paint and body work. Painted gloss black with krylon cans and fan tip.
Continued....

Looks good. I've always been curious how many cans it would take to paint an entire car. Did you save any money over a cheap Maaco job?
What are your plans going forward?

Wont let me upload anymore pics for some reason. Thanks for the replies. As far as future mods go there are tons I'd like to do. In terms of plans for appearance I'd love to get my hands on the stock front lip, and well as window visors. Was thinking of going with mesh bbs's, but my taste for wheels constantly changes. Very next thing to do though is buy some coils to get the car balanced out properly. Right now it's on lowering springs and tokiko shocks, although the front is at least an inch higher than the rear. So that needs to be fixed asap. Any ideas about why I can't post updated pics?
