Bought a wrecked 04 berlina with 30k miles. I plan on rebuilding it and probably modding it in the future. Attached are the pics of the car when I initially got it. The car is all stock. Still has the original potenza tires. It seems like the previous owner hydroplaned into a tree or something.

Took the car apart to see what's broken and what needs to be replaced. All control arms need to be replaced along with the knuckles. The hit was so hard that the knuckles cracked both rims in the rear. Steering column needs to be replaced as well.

Good luck with the project!


Are you going to replace the 1/4panel or get a full over fender?

Got all the suspension parts. jacked the car up and replaced most of rear suspension on both sides. One bearing was bad so had to change that as well. Next thing is to replace the rack and pinion.

Update. Last month has been very busy with work, college. The car is slowly moving to a painting stage. Took a while to get all body parts. Finally finished all the bodywork. Had pretty much the whole car primered.....twice. Bought a set of rims from a friend. Also had Tien lowering tech springs installed. Here is what the car looks like right now. Notice the windshield pillar has been painted flat black.
