That's probably an understatement for almost all of our cars.

biggie you car is clean. most of the verts on here are very nice. I just need a paint job and redo my interior as well as a 5 speed swap and I will be happy. Rebuild and boost I will be very happy.

I need paint badly, its peeling off the bumpers and need to straighten out my bad pull on front fenders. I'm happy with the interior except for getting the 5spd in, hopefully that will be by the end of summer.

yea I know what you mean by needing a new paint job. Is there a way that I can get rid of the black strip going down side and to make it flush with the rest of the body? I know I could prob use bondo but just wondering if there is another way.

I had help with the passenger's side but I put the drivers side on by myself It wasn't 2 bad only part that sucked was we forgot to pull out the wiring before unbolting the passengers door.... That was a pain but it only gets better with time right one of these day's she'll be lookin good....

did you just leave the wiring from the vert in there and hook it up to the new door? Reason I am asking is because i did the swap and want to see if anyone kept the coupe wiring harness and spliced it in some how to the existing vert one. Right now my only problem with it is that when I lock/unlock the door on the driver side it doesn't auto lock/unlock the pass. side with it.

lol, so you have to walk to the pass. side to unlock the door then walk around to the drivers side to get in? I took the locks out of my OG doors then put them in to my coupe doors. I think you can swap the locks from pass. to driver side too, I remember being very careful not to switch mine because they looked so similar

Also i got my new spl subframe spacers in the mail today

Messed up the rocker panel and the passengers side door....

But I have already swapped the door out and you can barely notice the dent in the rocker panel.... Dam rail road signs! No pics of damage yet but Will take some soon....

I am honestly more disapointed with your choice of fabric then in the fact that you crashed your car...
