Fixing my car

Well i got hit about 2 months ago. Finally got most of the parts to fix it.

Going to fix it and replace a few other things while in the process.

Here is what it looked like about a year ago.










will post up damage pictures and some of the WIP pictures once they upload

the damage

starting working on prepping some of the parts






i have 2 doors, both front, going to repair the back drivers door. also have headlights and HID bulbs.




here is my stock lights off then on, it was day time, will get a difference with HID at night to stock too

Dang nice... Looks like youll be busy!!!

looks like u hit something, not smoeone hit you

a guy turned into me. reason for the tire marks on my door and bumper. i got like 2800 for the damage. but that was only for the damage on the drivers side.

Prepping bumpers is awkward sh!t, espically if there steel.

super easy to prep a bumper, just use the scuff pad (purple thing in picture) and lightly scuff the bumper up. dont want to do it too hard. i prepped the bumper and fender last night very quick, like 30 minutes total.

Nice the addition of man

some more prep pictures

which looks better, the black mirror or the silver mirror?

silver for sure

painted mirrors. the black ones make it look cheap like its a base model

the black ones are painted

Silver looks better!!!

The black would match the new lights though.
