Update. Measured up the frame. I only had time for one measurement. It was from the top of the hatch to the front bolt hole for the crash bar. Turns out the side that got hit was a 5mm too close, and the other side was 5mm too far away. I think that's pretty good for being hit at ~40...

Also.. I finished sealing up the fuel tank. I now have four days to work on the car so I'm going to talk yo a few people and see if I can get that frame straightened.

Also bought a stud gun and slide hammer so I might be able to pull out the dent. Or atleast the top of it. I'm less worried about the bottom.

So I may have gotten a little side tracked while waiting for the sealer in the tank to cure....

Factory downpipe with the cat cut out and a pipe welded in place, and then extended and re welded to bolt up to the factory cat back. Not a lot of work and only ~$15 worth of materials.

Got some gaskets and put the downpipe back in. Also put the fuel tank in and filled her up... I honestly didn't hear the car start the first time.. How quiet is factory exhaust with the two cats?!?
