Default Straight out the shop
For those of you who may not remember my car was hit by a drunk driver who then ran away. he crunched my driver's side rear quarter panel and taillight, and messed the bumper up. well finally after 5 weeks of waiting and bullshit my car is done and it was well worth the wait!!!! :yahoo: T/A and bumper were put on in place of the v6 style for both. added the overlay to the front filler panel and not to worry the taillight covers will be going back on soon enough i have to order another set though. my friends' brother (who worked on my car) got the PONTIAC inserts out and ill be putting those back in too soon. I am extremely happy and i think it looks perfect and badass! :mrgreen:

TA side effects and a ws6 hood. Car looks good so far. Tint is an easy affordable thing to do to make it look good too!
