Sick car man. I'm jealous of your black interior... Mine came with Tan, but other than that they're almost identical.

Nice car looks just like mine. Somebody messed with the bowtie & SS badges on the back thats not how theyre supposed to go. Look at the pic I posted in your other thread, thats how they should go.

Maybe it's me but the fender emblems look a little higher than they should be too.

Nice car OP, bone stock is nice to start with.

I bought the car off an older gentlemen he was retired and everything i cant see him changing the emblems around.... He probably wouldve told me.... He said he never touched the car. Maybe the factory screwed up?

Your front fender emblems look completely fine but the rear badges have definitely been altered at some point, the factory did not do that I can assure you. Clean car though man, reminds me a lot of mines when I got it delivered April 2011. I was stoked, was a fantastic way to finish off my senior year of High school

Probably had body work for whatever reason...and sloppy work putting them emblems back by the bodyshop.

Correct me if I'm wrong, but shouldn't there be an SLP emblem under the left tail light as well?

I don't think SS's came with the SLP logo, I've seen some people with them on there but most of them including mine do not

OP, awesome car, it looks exactly like mine when I got it. How many miles on it?

The fender badges look ok but this is correct placement of the rear emblems.
Hell, I have seen those emblems put on the left rear also. Thats the only thing I see wrong other than the headlights but those should clean up real easy.

No, absolutely not. These were aftermarket items sold by SLP that individual owners have installed on the cars you have seen. None of them came stock with that badge.

It's refreshing to see a bone-stock LS1 SS

One question for some of the other board members, I was under the impression that all '00 to '02 cars did not have the EGR running into the intake like '98 and '99? I see this car has it and was just curious.

Good looking car either way. +1 for whistler headlights for a black car, I have them on my white SS and love them! Enjoy and keep the shiny side up.

I wasn't sure. Mine came with the emblem under the left side tail light, but then again there also was a harley davidson sticker on the back window too -_-
