God that engine bay is sexy...I hope you cleaned up the rest of that e-brake, a little weird that they didn't make sure to clean the whole thing.

Just sell yours and buy one. The amount of money you need to spend to get yours to that level is higher than the cost of the car.

I didn't even realize that, but black's right...for god's sakes man, you live in Canada. Sell a kid or two that you don't care about and buy the damned thing.
