Very clean car, man. Looks great. Only thing it's missing is the "V" emblem.

Nice. I also bought an STS not too long ago for a pretty good deal. I love it!

I got a 2005 STS Northstar V8 69k miles for $13,7k... Great blend of performance and luxury and I think looks nice too. So far I've cleaned up the headlights, and installed a lip spoiler. You should look into the lip spoiler that looks like the stock one. Makes it look a little more sporty.



Heres a few shots of mine...

Nice caddy, will be good to see another late model cadillac at the GM show in silver springs, too bad it isnt a V, after having mine now, I dont think I will ever get a non-v again (so long as I can help it)

Thanks. The lip spoiler is sold through tons of websites. Just search "2005-2007 Cadillac STS spoiler". I happened to find mine on ebay, painted (as they also come just primed for less), for only $99 painted. They are distributed by "Elite Spoilers". The part number is ABS145A-your paint code.

If your paint is Gold Mist Metallic I found one for you on ebay from the same seller I went through. They were great.

http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/Cadil...ht_8145wt_1165

I just attached it with the 3M tape that was already on it. Didn't want to drill into the trunk and didn't find it necessary as 3M tape has been good for me before and it goes all the way around the thing.

I have a few pictures of it on my phone. Let me get them over to the PC and post them up.

I don't have any farther away shots with the spoiler on than these, but you can find those on the web.

No comments on the pin stripes please, they were on there obviously, and I'm going to remove them soon, somehow.

Last 4 of your paint code are on the sticker in the spare tire compartment of the trunk. Mine reads 994L which translates to "67/WA994L Light Tarnished Silver Metallic Clearcoat". See the image below for 2007 STS paint codes.

Car ID is $99 not painted, add an extra $70 for paint. The ebay link I posted, which is who I bought mine from, is the same product for $99 painted.

So I don't know why that color is not listed on the carid website, but the excellent news is its the same color as the one sold in the ebay link I sent earlier.
