here are some preliminary pics. i'll get more detailed ones up when i get some time after the 4th. it's got some sort of ski rack on the back thats comin off pretty quick. probably the bra too. i got it our on some open roads today and i gotta say, im a believer in the rotary faith even stock this thing is fun. but it'll be even more so with some mods now all i need is some money...

yeah im not worried about the mudflaps. i got the bra and bottom part of the ski rack off, but it seems i have to remove the entire rear hatch (particularly the hinges) to get the top part of the rack off.



i'm afraid im gonna have to peel back the headliner or something to get to the bolt. anybody know about this?



i'd appreciate it, cause i dont really wanna mess with anything i dont have to in such a clean car.

Yah I believe you do have to drop the headliner to get to it.

well it took a little longer than i expected but i just barely pulled out the corner of the headliner and reached in there with a ratchet and got it. so all is well. all the crap (except those mudflaps) is off it and i now have a perfectly blank canvas to get started on. that is... as soon as i get it registered in-state and get through emissions.



by the way, i got a site up here. its just some little **** i threw together to document everything
