^^exactly

Which part.

Lets see, the front end was damage due to a 18wheeler tire blowing up and hitting my car.

The fender is due to crazy ex-girlfriend.

The rear is due to some hitting my car while i was at best buy.

The exhaust due to hitting something on the interstate. It prob something to do with 495 and Virginia horrifically built roads.

This all happen in the last month or so. FML

Looks like you've got a bit of work cut out for you. Check up on craigslist for spare tC parts, I was able to get OEM front and rear bumpers and side skirts for a good price. Also the PPC on forums.

SeanJohn

not much anywhere.

I found a seller on ebay that will paint and ship them to me but ill just look at all my options.

my goal is to have the car fully back to stock. New suspension, exhaust and other goodies by spring.

what did U use to paint your wheels?

spray paint or ??

Wouldn't insurance cover the damage from the 18 wheeler? Seeing as it wasn't your fault?

SeanJohn

I was hoping that insurance would cover it but they claim they wouldn't due to it was considered road debris. yeah my policy sucks.

SeanJohn

Fluorescent spray paint from walmart. I wouldn't recommend unless you like repainting every few months. it fades rather quickly.

Well since this is my thread and I finally got time to work on this car, im bring up some updates here shortly.

I starting trying to fix the car back to a better condition but with school getting in the way I just never got around to it.

I finally fixed the s-pipe and added a mid pipe to the car.

I just finished putting on trd springs for the time being due to the racelands being complete crap and blown.

I changed out the coolant, oil and doing a much needed transmission fluid change with amsoil 75w-90 gear oil.

I cut the cold air intake to make a short ram with a k&n fliter.

I plan on checking and replacing the brakes on the car, I found a front and rear bumper as well as a fender and once I get all new liner and splash guards that will be install soon.

Then the car will be painted and good as new.

Once all this is complete, more mods are going to be ordered and installed.

Ill post some pics here shortly, Im excited to bring this car back to where it should be.
