new mods, less problems lol

So after lots of frustrations and time fixing my car I finally found and fixed all the little problems it had. Some might remember I was thinking about trading the car in, my friends convinced me of sticking with it and fixing it little by little so for the past couple of months I have been tackling one little thing at a time:
- Slave cylinder
-Fuel gauge sensor and harness
-damaged IC hose (what a pain in the *** to realize this was the biggest problem)
-other little odds and ends + some maintenance done

Since I got the car running I dropped it off at AMS Autowerks here in NJ which is a friend’s shop to spray the front bumper. He owns a very nice 993TT for which he made an XPipe and he told me he could do one for me to get rid of the straight pipes and oh boy what a difference.
Here are a few pics:
