ok today I rolled and flaired the rear quarters , and the driver side rear came out like shit, the car had some body work done in the past , and someone mig welded the pannel to together, which left 4 nice weld spots under the pannel, as I was rolling I noticed the roller was not pushing out parts of the pannel out like the previous side, but then it was too late and already noticed a wavey job. So now im going to have to grind all the welds out and just hammer dolly the bumps out as best I can. sorry the pic's suck should of pulled the car outside.

here is the otherside which came out nice but not as flaired as the driverside, which im going to fix in the coming days, and you can see progress on the sanding.

I dropped the motor in just to get an idea.

Yesterday I was at one of my buddies fathers house ,just shooting the shit, and seen that he had some rims sitting on the side of his house, he said that I could just have them and he did not want them. I took one home just to show my friend if he wanted them, he could pick them up for free, went back today and someone stole the other 3.

no idea if they are worth anything but they say " riken" on the center cap

Riken mesh are worth a couple bucks.

boosted98gst · 08-01-2007, 11:42 PM

Farzam · 08-01-2007, 11:45 PM
