So this car has been off the road for over a month due to what was thought to have been a dead fuel pump. Turns out it was both a pump and MAF sensor. I also painted and installed a new fuel door this week as well. Will get some pics later today or tomorrow.
so the running total looks like this. $300 for the car $140 for new battery $82 for plates $35 for new wiper blades and brake light bulbs $75 for replacement passenger door and mirror $125 for transport of said door $25 in cleaning supplies $25 spent at car wash $89 for fuel pump $22 for Maf Total as of today: $921

The drill walked on me a bit on the drivers side so i gotta go back and remove some marks from that. Other then that they turned out well enough to upgrade with some LED bulbs to further increase performance.
