I emailed Tom Henderson about this and he CCed me on an email to Jamie Meyer to let me know when the ap would be on the site so ... apparently it is not there yet but will be soon. My guess would be sometime after the holidays as I'm sure they are all on a long holiday vaca at the moment.

The down side is you would have to buy race/after market k-member/suspension, glass, rubber, steering etc, etc, etc which is fine if you are using 100% after market parts, but not so good if you want to use many of those factory parts.

Sorry about the delay on the BIW application, folks.
GM Legal is still sorting through the details. We think we'll have it posted on the GMPP site for you in the next 30 days.

Stay tuned ....
