Front bumper is fiberglassed (or photoshopped) into body?

The panel gap fit may just be so tight, combined with the low-res of the photo and lighting, that it just doesn't show up well. However, the drivers side headlight cover looks like an N/A cover, so past front end damage is probably highly likely.

Tifo may have a point, but based on how visible all the other body lines are, It makes me think they bondo'd the whole thing together. This being an S2, how would you change the air filter?

They did that to my yeller car, Until the bondo cracked out, which wasnt bondo at all. It was actually bathtub caulk.

That air filter is going to be a bitch to change.

Hmmmm...Kash and Save Motors. Sounds reputable...

an '89 "S?" with 206k+ miles for $8k? I'm sure they also have a detailed list of maintanence records

EDIT: I think I'd rather take my chances on the Pace Arrow...
