Wow. Over a year since I updated this. Geez, I'm a turd.

My clearcoat was chipping bad on the roof, hood, trunk, all the flat surfaces. I was attempting to paint it myself but after trying to fill the first 10 or so hail dents on the roof gave up because I didn't want to be sanding my life away. Took it by MAACO just to get a quote and prepare myself for the sticker shock of taking it somewhere decent. Found a decent shop that quoted me a decent price, dropped it off and let them do their magic. Side skirts were all scratched up, think I ran into a tumbleweed on my MD to CA trip a few years back. They fixed that and all the hail damage and other dents I had accumulated over the years. Came out looking dead sexy.

Lucky for me SubieWorks is in the same parking lot as the paint place. While my car was getting painted the AC o-rings decided they needed attention too. Drove it home from paint shop it was a little warm. Next day I went to take buddy to drop off his mustang at a shop and it was blazing hot. SubieWorks hooked me up. They do a lot of lifted Fozzies and even had an 87 4WD hatch in the shop when I walked by drooling.

Wow. I think some of the pictures are broken on the clubwrx thread. I'm still tinkering away at it. Might have something worthy of adding as an update sometime soon.
