more progress. main part of the wing has been installed. it had a place for one screw on either side and then i used some epoxy that is supposed to bond plastic to steel. seems pretty firm on there. anyway, the excess needs sanded down, but its looking ok so far. gotta mess with the sides a bit now.

oh, and the trunk sits like that after a few hours of trying to get it lined up perfectly. i even cut the hinge on that side....no avail. im assuming its just due to the fact that the 1/4 had been messed up so badly. it sucks, but i'll have to live with it being 1/4" off

working on epoxying the sides. there is a small gap at the bottom of the back on the sides that i need to deal with. its worse on the DS because of the trunk/quarter problems im having. but ive got it so that it sits even across the back. just need to figure out what to use to build a "wall" with to close in the gap (between 1/4-1/2") suggestions are appreciated..

shut yo mouf jeffie. i'll fix it when i fix it, bish!
ive actually got a few small dings all over the passenger side that need fixed. one day, when i paint, itll all be done.

as for the wing, its temporarily "fixed", my own special way of course.

passenger fender has been done too. hope to install tomorrow. then she'll be ready for a REAL paint job, the whole car over.

Not laughing at you, but one of those rims has some nice chisel damage from myself after splitting a hex-head style lug nut and having to get the @!#$ rim off the car somehow.

Hence why I sold them, haha, I'm picky about my wheels.

any more info you could give me? summit only has pics for 3 types of keys.

joe: yeah, you could probably say the rims arent show quality

Hell they've seen 3 owners since me now ?

One thing I always love about going to bashes is seeing how much of my @!#$ has been whored around and I'm sure that rings true to many.
