Well got the parts from vin, brake block is not correct so I need to pull the one i got and work with it, not vin's fault. But the horn button and window motor are correct, and I GOT MY ROH WHEELS, and cooper cobra tires, and man they look slick on the car, just need to drop the air ride a little, then ill take some pics!

Yea they are nice ROH ZS rims. I am gonna paint the outer lip(massive curb rash on a few, and LOADS of clear coat peel, but only on the lips) and the inner area where the lugs go in graphite. Got the wheel paint and clear for it today!

Trunk is FINISHED, fiberglassed and bondoed, then sprayed in undercoat. Came out sweet, need to touch up a few spots, but all in all looks awesome!
Working on drivers side front fender now!

On the curb rash,that's easily fixed.I just bought two 17x9 Cobra R rims (used),and was told they were like new....wrong.One has chips,I can except that,the other had curb rash.I got my drill and some 150 grit sanding discs and went to work.After sanding the wheel (I need to paint it,but I have wheel paint and clear for said paint),you can't tell at all there was curb rash.It took about 20 minutes of sanding.I sanded the whole wheel by hand after the lip was repaired,and I'll paint it tomorrow.If you need a pic Mason,let me know.

Most of it is very light curb rash, except for one big flat spot.
I was thinking about polishing them, but Idk, was gonna do them in graphite.

Started taping up one wheel last night and sanding the rash, and clear coat. I will definatly be doing graphite( dark grayish-silver) lips and centers, with the light silver it is now on the rest. I thought about polishing but I would have to do it all by hand as the spokes are raised and if I try to get a wheel in there it will touch the spokes, and I REALLY dont want to polish all four entire wheels!

Started the drivers front fender. Built a frame out of some flat stock I had laying around for exhaust hangers that filled the big section that I cut out because it was rot, bondo, and a shiznitty patch panel. Layed one layer of fiberglass over it so far and its looking good. I was planing on doing metal, but because of the odd contour of the fender(gently sloping, and it sticks out farther, so bending a piece is almost impossible) I dont have the patience to mess with it. Gonna do quite a few layers to make it nice and strong, then mount it back up!
Then comes the drivers side rear quarter, and the small panel behind the door.

Finished the drivers front fender, painted it, installed it, and put the trim on. Looks SWEET with the new painted wheel, and all the trim on. I got tons of pics in the phone but idk if i want to send them at the moment, my back kills from being hunched over all afternoon.
Fixed the passenger side door jam too.
