Dude it is beat man. Scratches everywhere and some slight rust and what not. Trust me its bad. Maybe ill take some close up pics.

 

I would like to see close ups.. mine has 140k but isn't bad... just kinda dull. Post some up!

 

Ok ill do it when I get home around 930pm

 

I know mine has some scratches around the motor mounts but that's about it. No rust or anything. Like previously mentioned.... Yellow is very forgiving

 

Another tip if you want to remove a few more ounces. There is a little bit of seam sealer which is kinda hard to prep anyways around the shock tower tops. It scrapes off really easy especially with a heated putty knife. Then just use some adhesive remover on a rag and clean the rest of the seam out.

 

I thought about it actually not for weight but for looks. You don't think it will loose its purpose by removing it???

 

Its hard to notice

Before


After


There is a ton of little things in these bays that can be removed. Once you have the engine out you will find more things to remove. Anything you still use on the firewall mark with a piece of tape or something. Once its all out its hard to remember all the studs you use and the ones you don't. At least it was for me, I ended up leaving a few on I didn't need because I couldn't remember.

 

I'm on my cell phone so ill look at the pics when I get home. As for all the crap on the fire wall I left nuts on everything I need and the rest will be removed.

 

Do you drive it daily in the rain or snow?

 

No

 

Then I don't foresee your seams rusting away anytime soon

 

But they are lol almost every one has rust. I'll show you when I get home. It's sad

 

There are things for that too

 

care to explain?


also can you get better pics of your shock towers so i can get a better idea of what your talking about. i used a flat head screw driver and started pealing that crap off but i want to make sure im doing what im supposed to be haha.

 

as requested. notice the rust on the edges of things
