Fresh Paint after bein totalled
Finally got the car back from my buddys shop. Insurance said it was a total loss so I bought it back for 800 plus the deduct. of 250$ In the end I had $3,267.67 to work with.
Glad one of my good buddys is an awesome body man and painter.
'90 GXL
78k/mi
Stock ( next weekend delete the cat for a straight pipe, or just gut the cat, and a K&N drop in will be added also.)
Before:
(yes I know it's dirty)
Still a whole lot of little things to go, Need to get the swirl remover and buff again, re-align the doors and set the windows up again etc... but it's gettin there!

Rotarybeat- You think I should get the GXL stickers? I've been debating it. Also been debating the pinstriping it originally had from the dealer option...
Thanks a lot though guys. There's so much more that needs to be done but I rushed it so I could have a car again as I blew the rear end in my truck. With rushing it so I can have a driver again I'm having it while it's not finished so in some ways I feel dissapointed with the job. However, I can't complain at all for the price I paid... But, I still LOVE it! lol

Cause I'm to cheap to buy Coil-overs and they make it look lower...
Just for the hell of it really. Plus on the right rear they forgot to peel off the old double sided tape so I don't want to have to deal with touching all that crap up... that and honestly, I just wanted to keep it the way I got it. I haven't had it long so time will tell. I'm sure I'll rip em off sooner or later though...
