Weba, you are very proud of your cars and you should be!
Any plans for a rear cover?

Everyone who here owns a black car knows how hard it is to keep it looking good, you can see every fingerprint and all,
This car also has Bazillion scratches and dings and stone hits, for long time iv been waiting to get this done so.
As this car is my daily driver, i dont want to spend too much time working on it (cause white car needs ALL that time), so
i finally took my black car professionally buffed and waxed and all that, full treatment, some of the body panels were not
'save able' anymore, like grille, front fender and filler panels, those can only be saved by re-painting and i need new set of fillers and tails.
But now, this thing is Better, not new, cause it still has the scratches and dings and stone hits on it, but at least it's SHINY! huh, lets take a look at the pictures:
On the list for this car now, i'm rebuilding the brake calipers soon when i get the parts, and swapping in new front wheel hubs while at it, so it's ready to do that 3000 mile+ summer trip i did plan.
Then I'm going to blast another set of my GTZ rims, polish the edge and take the wheels powder coated.. going to look way better than the ruined Indy rims.. This will happen as soon i have time from my white car.
Also i managed to scan the ABS computer realtime with my laptop and ALDL reader, I'm pretty sure there is something wrong in the drivers side axle that causes the sensor to send errors in signal.. thats on replace list too when i have time to get another axle from junkyard or something.
Another huge issue i have is the engine rocking like crazy, it wants to fly out of the engine bay.. even with all the mounts seem to be in order, i guess the transmission side ones are too weak for the heavy 3.1. I have to figure out what to do with it and where to find time to do that. Not going to be quick fix.
