    .... the interior panels are painted red....

    It was late and the only interior paint i had was a grey color... was tired of looking at red. Going to goto the store and get black tomorrow.

    and another before and after shot too... Threw the panels together for a second to get an idea

    CF FTW!!

    Cleaned up all of the trim and interior moldings today. Sprayed the interior panels that were once red back to black. Shampoo'd the carpet and seats. Tried to fit my EP3 seats but they were to tall. The Avic D2 is gonna fit nicely in there so im not going to sell that.

    The JDM spoiler is still being painted. I gotta order new tail lights, headlights, corners, exhaust, a battery, engine scoops, and a few other things for starters. taking it to AAP on monday.

    Here are some profile shots of the car....

    couple more....

    Exhaust is coming off tomorrow. Going to go with the HKS Turbo Exhaust. Door panels need clips and so does some of the interior parts.

    nope... AAP (R2B2) has it now. Dropped it off today. Thats what they are going to do is run the wiring harness, front engine mount, fuel tank is getting hooked up, Clutch and throttle cable, and a few other things.

    6-8 hours. $80 an hour i believe is what they charge for labor. $80 tow bill. need a battery and maybe new clamps and a few little things. He said that it looked like i had everything already and shouldnt need to order parts. I'll know for sure by wed or thurs.
