after being out of commission for about three weeks.. i managed to replace the broken brake light switch(after unknowingly staring at it 15-20 times over the course of two weeks).. i was watch a tutorial and said oh snap!! the piece was there the whole time.. then i searched and searched for a m3 bumper.. lucky me found a m3 bumper already painted red.. so i drove out to LI and dude had the dopest 2002 i have ever seen.. should have taken pictures..

Next objective of OPERATION: LIFESAVER is- acquire wheels for the winter/a beautiful headunit

vvv that is homie.. Loso (shiba inu)

You don't have to pull the whole front end off.. It just makes life 10x easier
