So, long story short i chipped a very nice chunk of paint off my door down to the primer which required a repaint. When I originally painted the car I was not satisfied with the way it turned out to begin with so i repainted it and wet sanded the piss out of it. here are the end results. I also built a stereo box that allows me to still use my trunk space. enjoy....

New headlights are cheap enough. Wheels, well, that can get crazy. Nice work on the paint. Impressive. I'm about to start body work on the Bird.
