Possibly also restore the headlights

I washed it yesterday..... I have so many chips and scratches on that car, and the clear is starting to fade on the roof and trunk lid. It looks better dirty. Also, pictures of the skid plate!!!

Thanks.. I like them. It kind of makes the car look tougher. And since they were free I can't complain. They were new too.

Last night I worked on the headlights some.. They are a bit better but still a bit yellow and cloudy..

I am about to call about some spoilers on car-part.com.. There are a couple for $25 each.

Now just need to get the thing painted.. Hopefully during the first weekend in August.

Try and find a spoiler off a Legacy. It'd look much cleaner
than going aftermarket. But in reality it'd reduce gas mileage.
Most people dont care about MPG's and I used to be one of
them, but man...gas prices are so freakin flaky these days.


On another note, I got 30mpg city/"highway" in my 5spd AWD :D
Had to change my driving style a lot, but it's better than the 26 I
was getting.
