Yea i found that jetta lip at a yard on accident looking over to another one. I also just picked up a DA front lip to attach to the rear bumper. got that for 5 bucks at the junkyard over here by school.

Didnt get much time to work on it today cause of weather and helping out around the house, but i managed to rip the front bumper off tonight and see the damage.

the screws are stripped and fully rusted. will be drilling out tomorrow


the bumper mount for on the fender is messed up, and the fronts been completely replaced before.


The headlight is broken in 3 spots so ill be picking a new one up


all my new parts that will be going on the car and then some within the week.


ill have more updates tomorrow
