Nice! Sorry to hear about your accident, but hey, they fixed it well!
Where'd you pick up the sct spoiler from?

[[ChaosweaveR]]

Nice! And nice to see you don't have a huge gap with the new bumper too. Also, wtf's with your muffler? It's all outta wack. Get some dual post mirrors and a ram air hood and your set! :woot:

[ThatGuy]

Thanks guys :) I appreciate it. Im slowly starting the mods.. lil by lil.

Nice! Sorry to hear about your accident, but hey, they fixed it well!

I found it on car-part.com... it was at a local salvage yard, i just had to get it painted. It was actually the first one i've found on there that was in my area, but if you find one on there, a lot of salvage yards will ship it out to you.

Also, wtf's with your muffler? It's all outta wack.

Im not really sure, i've noticed the tips hang down low. When i get my new exhaust tips im gunna have them remedy that situation lol

You'd be better off with a new exhaust IMO. (hint hint, glasspack FTW :cool:)

Nice looking car. Can't wait to see it after you get everything finished!

I love my car, but I agree trucks do come in handy. I'm actually looking at buying a late 70's F-150. I love the body style and having a truck around again will help when I do need something towed or hauled.

beautiful car! i love the spoiler, looking to get one myself. if ya dont mind me asking...about how much did it cost to get it painted to match the car?

[GMFWDFAN]

pretty! I used to be jealous of your rock/bug chip-free front bumper, but my week old bumper is now like that as well. :lol:

:)

Nice looking ga you have.

Paint and Labor, my guy charged me 100 bucks, and it looks perfect. They're hard to find, so just keep a look out.

Good looking truck, my buddy had a 77 for a long time, and apsolutly loved it. Easy to work on, and a sound trucks. They're just hard to find now... they're all either restored and you'd hate to actually use it, or so far gone its not worth it lol

Well if it makes u feel any better... this one is new as well. Of course thats thanks to the lady the plowed into me lol My last one looked good in pictures, but the right hand corner by the wheel was all scratched up, and the other side wasn't looking to good either thanks to a frozen snow mound i didn't see.

looks good, the steering wheel mod i want to do as well, but don't know if it work with my car.

I would think it would... just gotta get the clockspring for it. Thats all thats waiting for me to install mine now, its an 83 dollar part. I'm pretty sure that all grand am's are automatically wired for it.

Thanks again for the compliments everyone :)

Me too! I know the owner of the body shop i took my car too (he's the same one that painted my spoiler), im friends with his son, and he knows how anal i am about my car. He flat out told the insurance company that he was only using GM parts to fix it. So i ended up with basically a new front clip minus the hood lol

Nice ride bro. I'm the one who commented on RF

I'm jealous of your car, i looked for a while to find a SC/T, than find one 3 months after i got my car for what i paid for mine! I found one of the ram air hoods around me, even Silver... but the salvage yard wanted 500 for it! (for some odd reason, it even has a scratch in it) So i tried to do a trade for it, guy would only take 100 off with my freshly pained hood! He'll never sell that thing... not at that price.
