thank you! 
I got it off Ebay from a seller named Tainik.
After shipping and tax, it came out to just under a grand.
Looks like Tainik increased his price shortly after I purchased though..

Added another amplifier, 5.25 polk coaxials in the doors, and got a 987 factory subwoofer and replaced the factory woofers with Morel woofers.

Just to help with the high-res post, I can add that I will attempt to do some paint correction work myself. Picked up clay bar and will be sourcing a Dual-action polisher and cutting/polishing compounds.
I'll see how many dents I can remove from the bodywork this way
Weather has been so crappy in the pacific northwest that I haven't even bothered insuring it yet!

Replaced the amber turn signal bulbs with some chrome ones.
Probably something nobody will notice but me, but not bad for $10 and 5 min
Before on left, after on right:
Both done:

No, portrait pics are fine. It's the huge landscape pics that don't fit the screen and make you have to scroll right. You're good.
I actually posted pics like that once, before I figured out how to downsize them.

Nice car though. You left us classic silver guys for red?!?!?

No worries, bud. We won't bite. (Well, maybe Starter986 would   ) Like I said, I made that mistake once too.

A deer was nice enough to introduce himself to my fender early this morning.
On the bright side, it looks to be just a fender and headlight. Feeling lucky it didn't hit the windshield, hood or come in the cab (had top down).
Edit: I tried to make pic smaller with a resizing app, dont think it worked. Sorry guys. Go easy on me.

Drilled a hole in my bottom plate and changed the trans-axle fluid.

Installed the Rennline Rear sub frame brace and Tie Downs. Pretty straight forward install but here are some notes/ tips:
My 02 required studs to be punched out... take nut from stud and thread on bottom of studs for a bigger target and tap out with a hammer (studs are splined like wheel studs)
My aftermarket second cat delete pipes were in the way so use a pry bar between exhaust pipe and sway bar to gain clearance needed to remove stud
Apply antiseize on joints going into bar
Apply small amount of blue threadlocker to all bolts and studs... there are not too many times that the subframe braces have to come off but better safe than sorry?
I couldn't quite get logo visible from the back when I tightened up the bar but it didn't really bother me but if you want logo out the back, set up joints and turns accordingly.
