The original sun visors have been removed and replaced with an AE86 style sun visor. unfortunately they are not designed for the model (USA).

I will include the original visors if you wish to have them repaired.
Tires may need to be replaced soon. I was planning on replacing the rims and tires with something more sporty looking but i never got around to it.

Was going to replace the entire exhaust system with a OBX Racing manifold and front pipe, Flow master CAT, remove the resonator from the rear pipe, and install a perform muffler. Never got around to it. I stating purchasing a few small items. New manifold hardware in case any of the original hardware broke and two new chrome muffler tips. Which will be included if the winner wants them.
