This is my 1999 Tiburon, 57k Miles, I bought it for 750 dollars because it was in a front end collison last summer and have been saving my money and working on it. When I first got it, the corner support was folded up to the motor lol.
We put a new corner support on it and bought all the front end parts needed from a white tiburon at a junk yard for 400$
So I will have 1500 in it when its done.
We taped it all up today so we can shoot the primer tomorrow and im going to drive it with a black front end till its a little warmer to paint the whole car red.
I was bored so I did this, Hope you guys enjoyed the pics.

Yep $750.00!
Took alot of work though re doing it all and cleaning everything and pulling off the old corner support and welding the new one in and making sure it was all in the correct spot lol. Im realived that its almost done, Just gotta put the 2 air bags in this week and spray the paint in the morning.
