well guys not much to update on as i have been busy working 7 days a week, and then i got pneumonia this week so no car mods
but we are looking to move into a new MUCH larger house in a MUCH MUCH nicer neighborhood by the 15th of July, its a 3 bedroom 2 bath with a -and here is the great part- detached 2 car garage and shop, with lighting and everything already installed
all surrounded by a fully fenced 1/2 acre back yard and paved drive. and the best part is that it is another of our current land lords houses, we have the best land lords in the world i swear, great people and we are happy to stay with them. so i am pretty pumped. we just a have to work out where they are going to move there daughter who is the one in the house right now, probably just trading houses is what i have been told, so i hope this will mean a new paint job on the neon very soon. wish me luck

well a small update, I took the week off of work to deal with my moms passing, and decided to start working on the car. so this week I have gotten the airline set up and my compressor set up and working, bought some more Omni MP170 epoxy primer, and shaved my spoiler holes in my trunk, and started on the small dents and dings. stripping all the repaired panels down to bare metal and then epoxy-filler-high build primer blocked and smoothed. the front bumper is fully-fitted and looks great with the mugen lip. I hope to have the body work done in the next two weeks.
I am not sure about color anymore. Me and my mom were sitting on my porch a couple days before she died talking about the car, and she mentioned how nice the car would look a creamy, almond white, so I think I will paint the car almond for her, I think it will look great with a nice set of polished wheels.
this is the car that I am looking at that makes me want to do the almond/khaki look even more
I will try to post some pics as soon as I feel a little better and dig the camera out
