Looks like it should be sweet.. One question tho.. why pre 88 bumper? Looks like that 89+ isn't in the worst shape.. and don't you like the 89+ bumper better?

This one is not in a bad shape, i prefer the look of the pre 89 though.

IMO 89+ rear with pre 89 front looks better, but thats just me lol

 

[madsupra88]

Front is torn down for some body work. will post pics later on tonight.

[madsupra88]

Alright guys, i got some good news here, but with a little upset... (which i am very pissed about btw)

FMIC done.
Nose piece done
bumper done
Aligning all the body panels done.
Rear brakes done
All wheels are on
Got my rear quarter panels rolled at my friends shop so the tire fit nice and tuck in perfectly.

One thing that made me mad though is, i had the car up on a lift and found something that i will deffinatley get ahold of the previous owner about....

my passenger side motor mount is F****** missing.........
Didnt even look like it was ever put on!!!
and the driver side motor mount has some freakin washers under it.......... pics below.

After quarter panels got rolled

The way it sits as we speak

And the RIGGED up motor mounts F@(&&@$(&$ (&^(^( ^(&^ &%^&*( it.

Drivers side

Passenger side

Shit like this pisses me off when its not brought up during the sale..
