About to give my ride a Makeover
Okay, I'm out of College for a 2-weeks break period, and about to fix & repair my car.
1/. Change the Axle (passenger front got a prob)
2/. buy 4 brand new 15" tires for my Stock Alloy wheels - , them 96 EX wheels (on my 94 EX? damn hate them wheels, like the old 94-95 better) Gonna sell of my 18" for $500 (with 3 tires only) and will buy 17" later on - Reason? I drive 80 miles / day. Can't afford to rollin on 18" or 17"
3/. Get a Camber Kit (so far, I've been Recommended to get Specialty Prod Control Arms w/ Ball Joints rather than ALL ball Joints, Does Ingalls make control arms too?
4/. Readjust my suspension, seem to have problem lately
5/. Fix my Rear Bumper - Some F**** bastard dented it (1 mo. ago) If I can't, I'll Cut it and give it a new look - Combat Style lookalike
6/. Paint my car new Color - 1 coat of Ice Blue Pearl on double coat of Platinum Silver. Gonna be HECK of SAND JOB for me, my current color is Black - Have to paint inside out. Also, if I have time, I'll do the dashboard and stuff.
7/. Fix the ABS problem (like a year now)
8/. Redo the Timing of the belts and readjust the Engine Piston + rings, it sound bad recently.
9/. Should I cut and bend my Fender and make it BWII look alike or buy new Z3 Fenders, I kinda don't like Z 3 = too common. Don't know if I can bent it good. DOES any one know to to make the fenders FLARE OUT more, so that when I got my new 17", it'll tuck inside? Thanks
10/. Change my system, and Hook it up with Laptop.
That's about how I planned out. But i'm not sure if I have time to do it. Mostly by myself. Hopefully the Shop won't loaded with cars, so that my Cousin can help me out.

I know..........I'll be busy working on it days and night, Hopefully I'll finish them soon. *sigh* some times I just want to give up, but love it too much to let it go.
The Axles, brakes, and Suspension setups should take me about a day.
Engine parts is another day.
Painting will take 5 days (3 for Exterior and 2 for Interior).
The audio system is a whole day.
Custom made Fenders and Repair my Rear Bumper should take about 2 days max.
So that's about 10 days total already. 2 days for be to test it out and 2 days for me to test out it out with my girl eh he
