12/2019 - Initial Exterior Assessment



I made a mistake when I was in LA. It was a social event and I am a social person. I should have broken down the car and looked at everything. I didn't fully assess the car. I didn't go over the parts that were there... I was confident of my visual assessment, but I could have done more. It wasn't until I retrospected on the parts that I realized it.
Since the hood was detached (hood flew open at drift even, damaging tension rods/mount only), engine bay was exposed. Dirty, wires and hoses everywhere. Honestly one of my biggest concerns has always been wiring. While it is all there, who knows what has been added.




Looking at the exterior, it was rough as expected. Bumper covers were definitely trashed! Dings and scratches throughout.









I started to make a plan on what I needed based on these images. Jon also had the hood support/tension rods and mount. They were messed up.
