S14 Bomber Project Update #1 - Fixing Things

So, of course I had to mess with the car as soon as I got it.  I worked on fixing a few things, namely the purple center console piece.  I immediately ripped it out and painted it with My Rustoleum High Gloss Plastics paint.  15 minutes later, it looked much better. 

Before & After:






After that was fixed, Chase and I washed the car (Thanks to Miguel for letting us borrow the pressure washer).  The car looks about as good as it will for a while.  I'm still deciding on whether I will do a Kouki front end swap, and whether or not I'll get it painted or try my hand at Vinyl Wrapping.
 

 
 




After the car wash, I ripped off the door panel to fix the door lock (the handle was loose and the lock was inside the door)  and to try repairing the window.  After about 30 minutes, and a little help from my wife, I had the door lock fixed.  Now the window not rolling up is another story.  I don't know what the hell is the deal with that. It will roll down, but not up.  I can hear it trying but it doesn't budge.

Of course I bought a few things for it already.  That'll be in the next post.  I'd like to get some vids as well.
