Thought I'd post a couple pics of my 05 since I got some more work done to it.
Finished the facelift front bumper with glass fogs, painted bumper molding, euro hood lock and key with fuel door, LHD ST170 headlights, ST170 lower grill, facelift upper grill, SVT front and rear brake swap, and I think that's it so far.
Need to sort out the fenders next cause my 05 washer fluid bottle is pushing my passenger fender out of wack and not lining my front end up properly.
Then hopefully soon my 5 bolt conversion finally gets done so I can install my 18"s just in time for winter
Just did a quick photoshop edit I thought I'd post
UPDATE!?!?
Well As my car was sitting across from work yesterday a old lady decided to back out into the road and not look behind her.
So now I need to drop it off and get a new door and have my rear quarter painted.
I need some help too please guys maybe ZTWSquared, I need the part number for an SVT passenger side door handle bezel as it broke off from the steel bending.
here's a few shot of the damage...

Thanks!
and I live in Guelph but I do have a big and mean American bulldog who sleeps right beside my car
Ok shes not really big or mean, she'd just bark a lot until you pet her
Here's her dating photo!

That car looks great! Reminds me of mine, if I had put the UK or German front clip on it (if not an ST or similar). Every time I see a bone stock black ZX3 for sale, I wanna go and look at it and convince the boss to let me have another one as a second DD. Alas, I don't see this happening unless I get posted somewhere that I need one. Besides, our next vehicle is likely going to be a 7-seater SUV or Crossover, as we've got 3 kids as of just under 4 weeks ago.
Anyways, back on topic...what's next for your car when the body and paint are sorted?

Thanks man!
Congrats on the new little one, I have 2 and I am stopping at that cause I really can't afford a bigger car lol.
I have the Euro fenders from Frost's old car sitting in my shed waiting for some spare cash for the body work and paint.
Then I'm hoping to find the right FSWerks stage 2 for it just for a little more get up and go, and I'm trying really hard to get my hubs and rotors back from my machinist for the 5 bolt conversion.
