well right before WCC, i started poking around in the engine compartment and found a shit load of bondo in there covering up a rust HOLE. the weird thing about my car though, is that the PO made a home made battery tray and moved it back about 4-5 inches, so it didnt rust out the hell hole, but umm the place in front of it. heres when I removed the bondo

I think you might wanna try some stronger tape... it will eventually fall off!

Just kidding!

Great job!
