Post Clappy's 94 GS Worklog
Thought I should start one of these now, and slowly add as stuff develops.

I am not car savvy by any means. The bulk of the work will be done by my friend, who is a mechanic and body guy.

Here are a few photos from the day i picked it up.

If those are G-Force GT's, you'll be happy with them :) I have the same tires on the same rims, on a black car....

You need clear markers to go with your headlights/taillights!

Here's the latest part to land on my desk at work.

should look nice on the MS Bumper

Also bought another MX3 GS, just had it towed to my friends shop for an inspection. see if its worth having as a second driver, or use the parts on the project car.. We'll see.

I know you believe that you understand what you think I said but I'm sure you realize that what you heard is not what I meant.

cost you pretty much the exact same as the shipping costs to tint them yourself. the paint is like 17bucks. and clear coat is also like 15 bucks.

Generally speaking the box size needed to ship those would put the shipping price over $20. So all things considered and Paypal is actually valuing our dollar properly.
