It's not really body work. I just mean those strips of steel that the small bolts with the big heads go through. I just cut the aluminum to the same length, traced the holes with a Sharpie, and drilled them out. I only mention it because they're poorly protected from corrosion and I'd imagine they'd be pretty gnarly on yours as they were on mine. A couple of mine were aluminum can thin and couldn't be saved.

Due to my mother's passing, I will not be continuing with my project. I will be selling both my car and everything that was going to go into it for my STi swap.

I will be posting what is for sale and pricing once I take care of my personal matters. I apologize to anyone that has been following this thread and to those that have helped me so far. I hope you all understand why I cannot continue this journey.

Be back soon. -Vince

Thanks guys for your heartfelt thoughts. I have decided to sell everything. I had to decide on either having a cool car or a home to live in. Obviously, my house is more important. I will start PMing those that are interested. Thanks again for all the support.
