Well, it had a massive bodywork done to it and it got a new paint! If you forgot about it, here is the review I did of it:

And here it is now!

So it’s not yet fully reassembled as you can see (rear bumper, emblems on the car, side markers and stuff...) but still... Freaking look new! No more rust, new paint. Freaking nice!

Next will be the interior! Lots of work there haha

Nope lol. It will be “japanese market regular price”:)

Once the interior is done and brought back to almost new looking, it will be close to 50k$ here.

Well I haven’t done shit other than changing an injector (bastard costs close to 300$ lol). I’ll do some of the interior work it needs though.

Wait, that’s the one that caught fire right? It looks way nicer now, though.

haha good memory man.. It is the one indeed :)

Looks “slightly” better now haha. Interior still needs quite a bit of work though (full leather change, carpet change, door leather change, dashboard polish...etc)

Pretty! So is this unusual enough to get stares in Japan? Wondering b/c some of the “normal” car mods out there are totally outlandish

They will get repainted, but they are the original ones, just without their chrome covers.

Hmmm, what did you do to it, it looks different...

You detailed it? Am I right?

Joking aside it looks fantastic! Congrats!
