When I first got it....




Checking the ac for leaks, filling with freon etc.. and a little edit lol

First thing I did was fix the damn turn signals which were sprayed black for some god awful reason.... They came out pretty shiny in person, the pics don't do them justice!

[quietflight6787]

Hard to see them here but yea...

Next little project I did was removing that hideous green paint from the VC! I was so sad when I found beautiful wrinkle red under it! Anyway I went ahead and took it down to the aluminum.... I don't have a completely finished pic besides the one above but its not even done there lol Once its done fully I'll post it up! Wouldn't let me upload these so I had to link it :[

When I bought the car it had a janky ass coupe exhaust on it! So I bought a stainless 2.5" exhaust... hate all you want, it does the job!

I think it looks pretty good for a knock off, minus the cheap mounting hardware :/

I also bought JDM side markers and Fog lights but have yet to install them! Its only 20-30 degrees outside here and I don't have a garage so they will have to wait for a while!

Two weeks ago I went to replace my driver side axle and found that the nut had like fused to the axle from winter rust! This was the result! And believe me I tried even a 3/4" Impact!

So this is my hatch build so far! I have so many plans for her, but only time will tell where it goes! It's pretty hard making enough time to work on the car being in the army but I make due ;] Anyway enjoy, comments and criticism always welcome!
