so most of you know i totalled my car, and for those who dont, the story is herehttp://forums.nicoclub.com/zer...story

trying to get over the fact that im not gonna be able to fix it, im gonna end up parting it out and getting a shell and swapping everything over

in the mean time, my brothers not driving his car anymore, and my parents decided to let me use it for now, which is good so i atleast have a car to get around in

now, it definatley needs some TLC, as you can see he didnt exactly take care of it, so since im gonna be driving it for a while, might as well since i dont want it to look like a beat up POS because its still a nice car and runs well



I call it 2-face, since the passenger side is perfect, meanwhile the drivers side from the front fender to the rear bumper is all messed up lol

even on the inside, the drivers seat is ripped up, while everything else is fine



and last but not least, he left a car battery in his trunk, which eventually tipped over, all the acid leaked out, and like destroyed everything



but anyways, its not a bad car at all, and if it wasnt for all the damage from him not taking care of it and not knowing how to drive, it would be pretty nice

since its not really my car and im saving money for my baby (the 240), im not gonna spend too much money on this car, but i DO want to

- get rid of that dent on the door so the window can roll down and so it looks nicer- kinda fix the damage on the back bumper so it wont be perfect, but will atleast look ok- get a new everything for the trunk (lmk if you know where i can get this stuff for cheap)- and maybe a new tail light

I already tryed taking off the door panel with the inention of hammering out the huge dent from the inside with a mallet, but i guess theres more than one layer of metal (derrr), so that didnt work out

anybody know a way to get that s*** out?

I say screw this car and in fact divide the car right down the middle with masking tape. Grab a hammer and spray paint and just go to town. lol really make it two face.Beriously though, maybe fix the window and that's it. Spend the rest on the 240.

Don't spend one dime on that car, you will regret it when you see you could of had all that money on the 240.

its not even worth trying to fix that door. theres a impact bar in there and it is adhered to the outer door skin. no way in hell that is coming out. if you really want it fixed buy a junkyard door.
