As most of you already know, Shawn and I have been involved with the Grand Am Owners Club (GAOC) for quite some time, plus, the up coming G6 Owners Club (G6OC) and are not in the habit of accepting 'perks' or 'donations' for developing these sites. With this said, we were recently overwhelmingly surprised at a shipment we each received from Jace, N-body/Epsilon Marketing Manager for GM, as organized by Adam, 30thAnnGAGT.

In this regard, it is with great pleasure Shawn and I announce our newest car modifications ... GM SC/T hoods!!

Now, under most circumstances, Shawn and I would typically consider the interests of the site before our own; however in this case, we simply could not refuse. Officially, Shawn and I would like to express our sincerest gratitude to both Jace and Adam for their gift and hope the GAOC and the G6OC will continue to provide you both with enjoyable places in which to spend time.

Kelly and Shawn

LMAO, NAH just kidding you guys are awesome and deserve those in every way shape and form.

Kelly now has a GA SE GT-SC/T hybred.

Shoot Shawn now has both the hood and spoiler now. Kick Azz!
BTW Shawn, what is on your lower grill to the drivers side?

If my truck comes out good this spring I think the wifes GA will get a make over shortly after.

I relocated my 'Ram Air V6' badge from the fender to there. Looks awesome, eh? I won't take credit for the idea though, I'm a copy cat!! :lol:

To to clairfy things from "the other side" if you will.

Kelly and Shawn had no idea these were coming. The ONLY reason the knew ANYTHING in advance was that I needed names and contact numbers for dealerships near them. Even then I didn't let on right away what was going on. I would have liked to see their faces when they found out though. I'm sure it was priceless :)


Kelly and Shawn do more for this site and for you guys than 99% of you know about, if they chose to tell you, then that's their business. However, having run a club in the past, and done things to help run 3 sites at a time I know what their work load can be like. Running this site IS a full time job. There have been times when Shawn and Kelly I'm sure would like to take a break, but they don't. They do it for you.

They also promote a GM product, and through the beginning of this site have probably sold more GA's than some dealers LOL! :D Well maybe not that many, but a few. And they have certainly fueled the enthusiasm that we all have by keeping themselves.

I truly have felt that Shawn and Kelly deserve a "perk" for running the great site that they do. I do have inside sources at GM that were able to do this for Shawn and Kelly. They're the same sources that donated the spoilers to the Albany picnic. Want a giveaway? Come to Albany and enter the raffle! Shawn got his spoiler that way!! :)

And not to sound rude, but before you ask NO I can't get you a hood, spoiler, 02 sensor or even a cupholder :D

Adam, I wish you could have been here when you told me. And then in my truck as I was hooting and hollering on the way home from work. :lol:

I can't thank you or Jace enough. Honestly, I'm still in shock.

WOW!! :wow: That is pretty sweet! Good job, Adam! :thumbup2:

Couldnt think of any 2 more deserving of this than Shawn and Kelly. Shawns tireless dedication and Kellys almost god like compassion is the seed of the site here. Anyone whos met the two know what I mean; just a fine caliber of men.

You guys continue doing what you're doing and enjoy your cars. That will be more than payment enough for Jace and I. :)

Edit: 10/1 Kelly washed his blazer before that shot as well.

I think the "official" name is GA SGC/T. I'm thinking about calling Ryan and having some badges made... :D

I'm really happy for you two. You really do deserve these and it's nice to see that someone had the opportunity to make it happen. So many things go unrewarded these days, it couldn't have happened to better people.

I also want to thank Jace and Adam, you guys have expressed what we all think and wished.

:clap:

I saw the photo without the spoiler and was thinking the same thing. Although I think it looks better without the spoiler on a 2 door than a 4.
