I tend to do the same. You'll find these cars relatively easy to work on, much less frustrating than German stuff.

I bought my car from a nice lady who did oil changes only for 88k miles.

If you didn't already know, the bushings on the front of this are very weak. That car was modded, so maybe someone already did you a favor and installed some poly bushings.

when i bought it, it had aftermarket exhaust, pulleys, cf fenders, and the clear corners thats all i can see so far.

you were doing so good until you painted those tail lights. its better red b/c it matches the color of the body.
for shame !
