Galant GSX build (and how to evict rodent squatters)

I spent a couple hours pressure washing the entire car inside and out, also got my locking lugnuts so I put the OZ wheels on for good, just have one stripped stud I have to knock out and put a new one in. I can't put the EvoX naca vent where I wanted on the hood because of where the bump is, so I'm not sure I'll be able to use it.

Any updates?
I haven't worked on it much lately, pulled the engine/trans out to get the engine bay prepped to patch holes and paint. I've been getting annoyed with how difficult parts are to find l, especially 6bolts, seems like they go for about $3k now, if you can find one. Not like it used to be 10+ years ago.

I'm honestly probably going to finish the core support and bumper and sell the car as a stripped track/rally car. Either with all the goodies I've accumulated for it, or just as a bare shell, which might be a tough sell.

I'm all for putting time and work in, but when parts become really hard to find and expensive, that's when I check out. Same reason I've owned 5 different AE86's, but don't own one now, rich man's game to keep one of those one the road.

I did pick up a silver 04 Lancer Ralliart from the auction a week ago, really reminds me of the Galant but perfectly road worthy, kinda considering keeping it.
