Did you get those S bits off eBay in the last week or so? If so I got the door handles off that car.

Looking forward to seeing how this progresses. Looking really forward to seeing this car look more OEM+ than it does currently.

yes i got the pins off ebay and i have had the glovebox laying around just have to figure out whether i want to tear it apart to replace the lock in it. also looking into the new center consoles, maybe a little bigger exhaust all the way back but still no tips, and some other little things here and there. yes trying to go for a cleaner approach i think with everything which will be a nice change.

This is my new votex front, sides, and rear. the votex vortex lol. shaved the hood emblem and fixed almost everything paint wise. still have a few small dings that i might take to a paintless dent removal. also added a dice ipod integration system, turbo s door pins, brand new dash pieces, APR 93 Catless tune, 42 draft designs shifter bushings, smaller HID ballasts and switched to a 6000K bulb, ECS window roll down mod, inconel race valves, ARP head bolts, port and polish to the head, samco turbo inlet pipe and new samco intercooler piping on the way all in black, tyrolsport side mount, and i have new tires and wheels that will be on when my adapters get here. the second set of pictures is when i was fitting my fogless grille. not complete thats why you see a white zip tie. but soon. good match i think.

thank you. the front still had a couple flaws so it is currently being smoothed out and repainted. 3rd times a charm right? and i do have the tow hook cover that was more of just a test fit so its not lined up around the headlights correctly. and as soon as my wheel adapters get here i will have new wheels and tires too.
