Lmao. I hope its not all lies i have been throwing the guy 100 out of every other paycheck for a while now i owe him 700 on the kit still. Its a cartuning kit im giving 1000 for. Hell i even had to pay the guy on here in 2 payments for my er rockers. (this guy lives on a tight budget)
Btw if anyone is interested in my offset poly bushings im switching to zzp poly bushings, i think the offset ones are abit more than i need for this car.

Dont remind me! I have come to terms with the fact im going to toast my trans, my wife thinks i may have a mental disability since we just rebuilt this trans last summer. And pay is every two weeks but i do have a tiny bit of money coming from state taxes coming back that will go twords it. I also have another 01 gt that has a spun bearing that i am desperately trying to sell, i cant bring myself to scrap it.

Also, you cant see for nothing in the pictures but last week we had some freak weather in southern mn, monday and tuesday dumped nickle size hail pinging up the cars pretty good id say atleast 10 to 12 small pings mainly on the roof and trunk, i have an adjuster coming out Wednesday, i have 500 deductibles on both this car and the 300m so what im aiming for here is a total loss on the gp so i can buy it back on a salvage title. I already have another trunk that i grabbed at grab and go that is in excellent shape. And i dont care about resale because this car is going in the ground before i get rid of it.

I got like 10 itty bitty hail dings last week my insurance wrote the car off, after buying it back they gave me 2200! They gave me over 700 for "aftermarket" modifications i have on it. All my mods just got made free. And thry didnt even brand my title.

What stuts are you using?

The pics look really close to an 97-03 I saw on FE3's.

Bad luck on the hail damage. My first car was that color. Always liked maroon.
 


Heck if you made out that good on the claim, go see a paintless dent repair guy and make it look like the hail never happened.
 
I guess i would only want the couple on the roof taken care of. The paint on the hood is shot if you ask me. We clayed and polished it and it shines up nice but there are a ton of rock chips. So i will be sourcing out a new hood eventually. It was awesome the adjuster was totally a car guy and he loved the car. He took no deductions for rock chips or scratchs. He came up with value based on 01 to 05 gt and gtps within a 200 mile radius of me and he got those prices from car lots that obviously charge retail and 97-03's in rust free low milage condition see 3999 around here.

Yeah thats why it pays to keep up the car's appearance! If it has any dings in the side parts of the roof, they can hot glue PDR studs there which rocks. Hoods and front bumpers on these are pretty much impossible to keep beautiful ain't they?
 
My bumper is in amazing shape but the good is gonzo. I mean you really got to be up on it looking for the crap but its my car so i am lol

Thank you. Yeah it changed the whole car appearance wise. Offset is perfect to me and ride hight is spot on. Now once the struts and spring settle we will see how it looks.
