haven't installed them yet. i'm going to get a new driver's side fender, and install them before i get it painted, maybe. i haven't decided if i want to install them or not.

got the fuel leak fixed, and finished putting the front end on. kept the grill and the fog lights! going to HTP to get my exhaust finished friday, and i'm calling it a day for now. more to come this summer!

no more fuel leak!

had to knotch my front bumper to get the fog lights to fit

got the bumper cover mounted w/ the fogs and grill!

i'll try to get some more pics of the whole car, but it looks like crap right now having a black front end. that will be fixed in a few months : )

thanks for looking

i've been pretty busy over the summer between house projects and getting married so i haven't had too much time for the hatch. but, after a trip to TN for import alliance, i had no choice. the car bottomed out on the way and knocked my oil pan loose. so i decided to replace the pan, one thing led to another, and here i am now.

switched the oil pan out, and was like...ehh, maybe i'll do a minor tuck. well, like i said before, one thing led to the next, and this is what happend (thanks to my homie SikofFalln for helping me out)

motor is nasty dirty

spent a few hours messing with it, but there is still a lot to go...

engine harness, which is getting re-loomed and tucked:

i've also got some stuff slowly being collected:

got the fender, front bumper, side moldings, and mirrors sprayed:

grainger solenoid to replace my crapped out profec b one

new couplers:

switching up my fuel setup, running an inline filter:

new i/c piping:

obviously not a big rush on this project, so i'll update this thread whenever i actually get out and do something to it. lots more to come
