Nice score Andrew, and one lucky girl too! Safe n smart dad move and a viable excuse for another LC in the drive. Win all around huh?
Best Hundred color of that year in my opinion.
 
She was pushing for Navy Blue.

I need to figure out a parking pad in my front yard and cut down that crooked tree.
 
Andrew... Congrats on the new 100. Or, congrats to the daughter. Nice color.

Do you hear the relay click when you turn the fog lights on? If so, REPLACE the fuse on the fog lights before you do anything else. Make sure it's seated. I had an issue with mine and I chased and chased and chased it, thinking it was a wiring issue because the fuse was good. It even tested good. Finally, I decided to replace the fuse and VOILA, fog lights.
 
Dwight - Thank you! I will do that.

Need to remove vibration damper on passenger side as well. (picture reminded me)

Making progress.

New passenger side glass for mirror. The other was magnified and made it hard to change lanes.
New passenger side tail light
Metal flex tape on muffler - we will see how long it last
Tightened valve cover bolts. They were finger loose.

Still need front and back bumpers and front skid plate.

I have not worked on the fog lights yet. I was waiting on the bumpers.

Now I have a sunroof that will not open. It sounds like it wants to open and then does not move. I have attempted the tilt and then move and nothing seems to work.
 
Can’t help you with the sunroof, have no experience. I never use mine. Wish it was gone. One less thing to fail.
 
Did someone have a front bumper that they were bringing to Relic Run? I lost the thread and still need the front bumper. I will not be there but need mud ship back to Raleigh. Thank you.
