I set the date today, the shops paint both is opening up and I jumped in. My car is going in Monday april 25th, in the morning. I have to work the night before so as soon as i get home, I'm gana strip it donw, put it on a trailer and drive it to the shop, I'm gana save about 400 because I'm taking the bumpers, tail lights, trim mirror and crap off so that they dont have too, and obviously I cant drive it like that.

what there gana do:
- remove my fiberglass thats filling the wing holes, and fill it right (weld it iin)
- smooth up my doors to a perfect surface
- pull my "garage accident" dent out
- fix a few more little rock chips/dents
- go over the whole car and smooth everything else out
- paint under the hood including the hood hinges to match
- re-paint the whole car, end to end top to bottum.

Final price $2700.00

I'm so excited about it, its gana look so nice, and the day I get it back (2 weeks after I drop it off) I'm gana put my kit on (it was painted by the same shop,) my new wheels, jdm tails, side turn signals, and get my intake done and in. Then send it off the the window shop to have it all tinted to the legal limit (I would have it done darker but I know I would have a problem with the cops if I did) also before I drop it I'm gana pull the dash peaces and primer/paint them up nice. I CANT WAIT!

Its gana be the hottest little car in my area, well worth the money thats going/gone into it.

I got off work eraly this morning, drove home and got the camera, I just could not let such a perfect looking day go. I went to Cascadia C.C. for the first 2, and then back to my old H.S for a 3rd. (I have a picture in the exact same location that I took about a month after I got my celca. Its cool to see how much things have changed, not to mention how much things have changed since I was in the H.S, its seems like a compleatly diff. life to me.)

It was so funny, when I was taking pics at the collage, a (50ish) couple walked past me, right when the guy got behind me he muttered. "Oh look I can take pictures of my car" in a mocking voice, I almost broke out laughing at his imaturaty, his wife actuay did laugh at me.. I was shocked and confused as to why they said anything at all, yet alone make fun of me. it still makes me laugh a bit.

Edit: and yeah that is the collage rent-a-cops you can see though my window in the 2nd pic, I though they would give me some truble (they have in the past when I have shot there) but they just looked at me for a sec and drove off, like it was no big deal (witch is was not, so there cool)
