WTF is wrong with people that they would be so careless as to damage someone else's property, and then not do anything to make the situation right and instead just walk away.

Did they just think you wouldn't notice this?! Un fucking believable.

@Clipdat People are careless. I agree, it is wrong for someone to hit and run.

It sucks, dings and scuffs are going to happen if you actually drive your car, even if you are careful.. Even with a clear bra you'll get a scratch right above the bra its just part of owning a car you actually use..sucks but it will be OKay promise! Just get it repainted @ x miles! hehe.. I had to finally realize it going through gravel on Wildcat Canyon Rd yesterday.... *cries* I feel part of your pain @NorCal_Guy

I was thinking of the 20v, but everyone's got it. i might do a high comp 16v or 3sge beams w/ ITBS.

It is gonna be expensive. I was estimating with all the custom stuff (like mounts and wiring), standalone, and some other stuff, it'll cost nort of 7k. And imma go for the BEAMS. I've been researching about it and people have done it.

You'll also appreciate your FRS more after spending a lot of time in this.
Nope! No tofu tax. But $2k still is expensive for a 87 corolla. and the guy who i got it from wanted to sell it badly coz he wanted to buy a truck for his dirt bikes, so i got to lowball hiim. yeah, for now imma stick with the 16v and do high comp and ITBS so i can hear sweet music while redlining it. But for now, i have to change out the suspension and have the motor checked. hopefully its not the compression, coz it is...imma have to swap it out for another 16v.



For now, im not gonna touch my FRS til im done with the corolla.
