Located a passenger side ground effect for my Trans Am! Even though my car is 5 different colors, it at least looks complete! Now to work on getting it one color...

Put a short stick in it too, that shifter looks big. And you BITCH you get to go to the shoot out again. I'm hoping I get to go next year. I just dropped the shell off for a real paint job. No more project rattle cans!!

Decided to work with what I have an keep the LT1 front end as it is growing on me! Plus since the car is pretty untouched drivetrain wise, its a good chance to have a nice original car when I'm done. Have the car all sanded down, just need to fix or replace the front bumper and pass quarter, do some minor dent repair and get her in paint!

The other day I traded my Ls1 tails (had a chip in the lens that bugged me) for a set of mint LT1 taillights since I'm starting to like those better anyways...

The LS1 front end is cool but the LT1 front end is just as mean if not meaner lookin. I def wouldn't convert it unless its just a must have for you. Keep us posted*
