The picture of the straight shot of the front end looks like 2 pictures were put together. The wreath and shield or not even. Haha

its not photoshopped, its apparently just that awful. I'm trolling buddy about it, and he told me:


You are correct, we had someone test driving the vehicle and during test drive they hit a tree. It is a real cts-v,, it just has the v6 front bumper. we would love the opportunity to show it to you.

That's what my buttons are. They were changed in '06 I believe. Maybe it was a midyear change in '05. I like the radio controls a hell of a lot better than the cruise. Who the hell can't reach the turn signal multifunction switch to use the cruise? I don't have to jack up my radio buttons...... by touching them.

He's right. Cruise control on the steering wheel is retarded. I'd rather have hvac and radio than t/c, odo/speedometer and cruise.

I Don't know why you cannot afford a $500 bumper cover for a $18k car. I bought a new GM one for less than 5, I got a hook up.

I'm not sure if the steering wheel controls are going to change because of it.

Im assuming you might have to change the clock spring and get the stalk for a 06 07 and move wires around to make that work Im trying to figure out if its worth the hassle on my 04 to do that I would like to have the radio controls on the wheel rather then the cruse

Are there two wreaths stacked on top of each other for some reason?
