New Stuff!
Today went and picked up 2 freshly painted milano red doors, front fenders, and the inner splash guards for $380. Came with spoon style mirrors, 2 good locks with a key, black panels (which were grey before with a tan window handle)

, and decent pioneers. When this car was in Miami before we bought it, someone had tried to break in so they destroyed the key cylinder in the drivers side door. So for 5 months now, I've been opening the passenger side door to unlock the drivers side. So the ergonomics for this car just went way up (although now I have 1 key for the ignition, 1 for the doors, and 1 for the hatch

) . The only problem with the new paint is that it makes the rest of my car look crappy. I'll get the pictures on here as soon as they're done uploading onto photobucket.
Here's the car Pre-modifications
you can see the chewed up lock cylinder here
used vinyl tape to cover up trim piece holes
After Mods:
note the windscreen wipers are black now
The difference (note: nothing has been washed for months lol)
matching door panels now
used red vinyl tape as a temp scar cover
