Finally got around to it...

So I don't think I've formally introduced my car on here yet so I took a few quick pics after claybarring+waxing etc.




I take ownership in the front bumper chip under the front left headlight. I hit the garage door going forward when I should have been going in reverse one morning. All the chips below the license plate are from the previous owner who used it as a daily commute car.

The rear bumper protrudes out a little bit from the prev owner hitting something. It has two unfixable cracks along where the bumper curves underneath the rear taillights. Thats why im always looking for bumper

There are two beer dents (I guess) below the driver rearview mirror. They are hard to see but noticeable.









That battery is old, I put in a duralast gold top.

All in all not a bad looking vehicle. There is some clearcoat failure on the trunk lid which is expected, this car sleeps outside at all times. I plan to change the pads this May/June and going to paint the calipers. Give me some color suggestions! Im thinking a color identical to the rims, or black. Any other color would look out of place right?

Once I get my summer job back I can start throwning $$ into the exterior. I'd like to DIY the bumper chips. I got all the tools and if I don't my stepfather works at a lumber store and gets stuff for free/dirtcheap I'll search a diy on painting.
