[QUOTE="cfvwtuner, post: 1590102, member: 37899"] Small update. It's been tough finding time to get to work on the car. I was able to find a replacement hood for the damaged one that was on the car. I replaced the gross 1 piece headlights with stock headlights and side lights. I put on real taillights to replace those chrome abominations too. I had to go with the later tails as the wiring was already modified when they put that chrome ones on. I installed a set of LMR SVE Springs with Koni orange shocks all around. Since the car needed ball joints, I replaced them with a set of roll center correcting ones from Summit racing. They came in a non descript cardboard box, but when I opened them up, they had blue dustboots and that nice little S logo on the bottom. I saved enough money buying the "knockoffs" that it about paid for the ball joint press. That press made the job a dream. A set of Cobra brakes have been installed up front. I was able to piece together a kit really cheap. I found a set of new Mach 1 calipers way cheaper than cobra ones, found closeout rotors and pads from rock auto, and installed stainless braided brake hoses. The rear will be sock replacements. I cleaned the interior a little, cleaned out the trunk and gave the car it's first wash since I got it in October. [ATTACH type="full"]50583[/ATTACH] [/QUOTE]
