Next up, I continued to change the switch illumination from green to red



Sandblasted and painted the strut brace mounts


I had two sets of head lights: one with blind covers and one off the donor with "as new" covers but cracked housings from the accident. So swap it is. And black!


Dipty dip


Winning 's winning



Add more wax!


Put new Conti winter tires on the wheels and this:



Since i couldnt make the facelifted front bumper fit to the car in a reasonable amount of time, i went back to the donor to get the bumper and a few more bits



Since this bumper had seen at least two accidents and had been repaired as cheaply as possible, I decided to go full #nöfuksgvn


Glued the bumper in 9 places with epoxide and added color matching jdm stitches


Added EZ lip for additional street cred


Also glued the front grille and fog lights - nothing goes to waste

Then I pulled the front crossmember back out...
