Default apparently this car is a bit of a cluster.. it came in for an air bag light...

but according to the owners, it's a SALVAGE car... I wasn't around to see what codes it thew, but I suspect that some if not all of the airbags are non-functional. The panel over the passenger airbag had some very odd llooking diagonal cracks in it.. as if the bag had popped... it's a shame, someone put a LOT of work into the body on that thing.

I also overheard that the car doesn't track properly, but "it's not the alignment".. LOL.. Bent unitbody much?

I feel bad for the owners, if they bought it in it's present state.

Rear bumper matching the car would have been cooler though.
