Bunch of Pics of My Bird after Formula 113 and of my 91-92 T/A Taillights

I used the Formula 113 yesterday and it seems to work really well. It comes off real easy and does'nt leave any dust. It took out a couple minor scratches I had too. I took these last night after I was done.

Thanks for the compliments on the Bird.

I'll try and get some pics of the interior in a day or so. It's pretty much original except for the 4th gen seats.

And the million dollar question(s) is... WHERE DID YOU FIND THE 91-92 TAILS? HOW MUCH DID IT SET YOU BACK? Thanks!

I found the right side on Ebay it was about $65. Then I checked www.car-part.com and found a junk yard in Virginia that had the left side for $85.

NICE RIDE, I HAD A 87 TA, WITH THE HANDLING PACKAGE. IT WAS MAROON WITH THE GREY VELOUR INTERIOR. I bought it from a good friend who bought it new. I was with him on the day he picked it up. I said PLEASE LET ME DRIVE IT, HE DID AND I WAS DOING DONUTS IN THE INTERSECTION. We had a good laugh.

I bought the car with 34 k and BLEW THE MOTOR about 6 months later. Maybe cause I didn't brake it in on the day he bought it.

Your car came out nice, if your friends want to try the f113 products you can purchase a case of 12-12 oz bottles for $120.00 , dealer price. plus shipping, but I would wave the shipping charges on your first order

ENJOY THE SHINE

I got it from a place on the net called bad boyz toyz. I would'nt recommend them. I took about six months to get. I think ther out of buisiness.

I think GTAuto Accessories makes them now.

Thanks for the compliments everyone.

Here's some shots of the interior. It's pretty much original except for the 4th gen seats. One of these days if I have any spare cash I'll do a color change to grey.

I don't think they make these wheels anymore. I bought them along time ago. I think they were like $160 a piece
