First thing you gotta do.. polish those plastic headlight lenses . It really does wonders for making a car looks years newer and you just need an inexpensive polish or two and elbow grease .

haha, glad you like the car.
I'd get that "minor damage" taken care of first. Then I'd look in to the structural integrity of the car because there is no way that your car should flex with that setup.... Either way, any car that runs well for $300 is a good deal! |

yea, glow soon to come. that minor damage is minor, theres NO structural damage, its just the outside sheet-metal on the door. and the reason the sub flex's everything is cause it hits the low note, which are the one thats cause the flexing, i'll get a vid for you guys later.

grats on the purchase daven, looks like a '93-'94 tracer wagon... get some PlastX and polish those headlamps, and get that "minor" body damage taken care of (check around at junk yards for a replacement door) ... you weren't kidding about the interior, that is hella taken care of...
if those are caps, scrap 'em and go for the black look... if they're rims, sell 'em and use the money to fix the "minor" body damge... nice choice on the clarion stereo, MP3/WMA? very nice... Infinity kappa perfect, flexing the INTERIOR or EXTERIOR? if it's the exterior, get some video! get some tint, then get some glow... nice job |

Dont do it yourself. Bubbles and crap ensue, and the glass has to be 100% clean. Even a good looking install will bake / fry / have bubbles in the summer if done by yourself (unless you do it for a living...)
