      2017 Mods and fixes

      In 2015, I lowered the car and did some body fixes (http://www.aveoforum.com/forum/f81/b...ck-dead-16085/)
      In 2016, I replaced my head (http://www.aveoforum.com/forum/f82/e...top-end-19864/)

      AND NOW 2017!
      This is my repair log for 2017. I need to fix some stuff, do some body work, get back to doing my inside mods. Basically all the stuff that I started doing but did not finish from bringing my car back from the dead in 2015.

      I was driving in Atlanta and went over a HARD A$$ bump that tore my front ground effect.

      I have removed my front bumper and started working on it. I glued back the honda civic ground effect and pop some more rivets. Now it's the bondo sand game. Is there an APP for this?

      When I did the work the first time, it was a bit wavy. Now I have a long sanding board and going to do it right!

      Here is my list!
      Outside
      1) Repair and fix front bumper.
      2) Fix the lights and secure the wiring better
      3) Fix the broken windshield
      4) Fix the various dings on the car
      5) Replace the passenger rear door.
      6) Cut out the running board passenger side.
      7) Weld in a new metal
      Might do a new ground effect for the rear bumper
      9) Might do side effect running boards
      10) Replace hood
      11) Paint entire car

      Inside
      1) Fix rear back up lights
      2) run cable for rear camera
      3) Get rear camera working
      4) Get receiver mounted (it's just sitting in there)
      5) Wire up recorder for rear camera
      6) Wire up dash cam
      Please do not power off, firmware update pending.....
