Damn, that sucks to see.

How are you doing, physically?

Please tell me you are going to be repairing the Kouki, and making it even more awesome?

Looks like the core support took most of the damage.

As long as the frame rail and towers are straight, just replace the core support and keep going.

Yes I will be fixing it. I don't think GTA street class will allow me to tub or tube front so a new support and that portion of the front tub that ripped. She will be back soon, just sets my financials for the build back significantly. But hey I wanted a cool new hood anyways

The man himself, StrawhatRR and I got started on fixing my fender, it's going to be quite the job.

My Autopower roll bar also came in today, the freight company accidentally sent me somebody else's too. I contacted them so they can get it straightened out with the freight company.

Small update. I've been pretty busy with the car, so much to do but I'm making a little progress. Still on the search for some parts to put my front end back together. I still need JDM kouki lights, corner lights, a grill and a hood.

I pulled the tub back out enough to make it look decent, bought a brand new radiator support then ended up finding a whole front cut from a zenki for dirt cheap so I'm probably just going to use the whole thing. Now I'm just waiting for somebody to help me weld it in.




I got my cage powdercoated and installed. I kept full interior of course

Finally getting around to updating this. Some big things finally arrived and it's starting to come together.

I decided to cut out all of the damaged area on the old radiator support and battery tray area.

Then I decided to pull the motor, clean and paint the entire bay.






Got my paint, it's Ford Tuxedo Black metallic.


And finally, what I've been waiting six months to receive. Car Modify Wonder Glare!





Unfortunately the freight company decided to jab the forks through the box so now I have to deal with getting them to fix this cracked rear bumper.

I have no idea yet, haven't driven the car. I bought these for temporary use until I can find some JDM lights local.

So I got my motor back in, running and cleaned up the wiring a little bit. I still have a little bit left to do for my gauges, more trimming on the front bumper, intercooler piping etc. Once I fix my fender I should be able to at least drive it as a full car again for the first time in many months. Then it's time for bodywork and paint!
