Yep that's what I need. A red driver side fender. But now at this point I'd pretty much take any color fender as long as it does not have rust holes. Thanks everyone.

This thread is dedicated to the restoration of my first car, a 1988 Mitsubishi Starion. I bought it on December 8th, 2012 (2 days after my 18th birthday) from a local man who was selling his project because he wanted to spend more time with his grandchildren. On the way home it wouldn't hold any RPM's and eventually stalled out. Luckily we weren't far from home, and we're friends with a local tow truck driver. At first we thought it was a bad fuel pump or a dirty tank, but upon giving it a fresh battery, it started and ran fine. Since then I've put on 2 front tires that hold air (they were used tires from our pile, but hey, they were free), since the old ones were rotten and leaky (I will be putting on a set of brand new ones before I'm finished the project). 2 weeks ago I pulled the radiator before starting a 2 week long condensed college course, so i was unable to do anything aside from ordering a new radiator. Today I discovered that my new radiator does not have the two holes at either side of the bottom of the tank where the coolant temperature sensors for the fans plug into, which brings me to my first of many questions, how should I go about solving this? Is there a way to have the coolant temp sensors somewhere else, or do I have to buy a different radiator? I also need to get the wastegate working properly. Should i be able to move it freely without the car running or should I not be able to move the linkage at all? right now I haven't seen it move with the car off, idling, or running at a higher speed. I know the vacuum lines are routed wrong, but does it sound like I will need a new wastegate solenoid? Anyway, thing still on the list of things to do: Front Wheel Bearings Strut Rod Bushings Drain and fill differential/trans Brake hoses Fix parking brake Complete brake job (drilled and slotted rotors?) Sway bar bushings Tires Polish wheels Paint-(going with Summit's Acrylic Urethane System-Merlot color) Possibly an aftermarket intake Fix an exhaust leak at the flange behind the second catalytic converter Some parts I could use some help finding: Wheel center caps? I cant find them anywhere... Rear wiper motor Rear wiper arm is rusted and bent Here's a picture of the day I brought it home, as well as a picture of the paint color I'm getting If you have any suggestions or answers to my questions, your help is much appreciated.
