What im not sure about is if that is the origanal bumper they fixed or a new one which would explain why the fog lights are cut. IM not terribly worried about it though, I got it for a good price anyway from what i see around here (col, oh)

and the fluid bottle is just plastic so it might have been a mediocre accident idk.

And from what I can tell Im the 3rd owner, the first one bought it new (all the records in the manual of oil changes etc) and took pretty good care of it then for the last 20-50k miles someone else had it thats taken some pretty crappy care of it. Now just to get it back were I want it xD

Sounds good, also lucky it all sounds like routine maintenance or simple little fixes

Lol yeah, its just a bummer cuz I wanted to put some money into upgrades xD I mean between the money ive spent and the money i still need to its at least over 1000 bucks. I mean last ralliart I saw in my area was like 6k, and I saw a few autos for 5k, I got it for 3750 So I guess it all evens out but meh xD
