GTO Grilles are in Only took about 2 hrs, most of which was spent trying to find the "clips" that hold the side of the front facia on. I think it's a LOT better looking. We'll see how long it takes for the wife to notice.

It was very cloudy when I took those. I'll take another now that the sun is breaking thru (after I wash it of course!)
And I agree Bobby, it's not as sharp as the WS6s are, but with the hood, grille inserts & dual exhasut (to come) I think they are pretty nice looking cars. I love the blue & yellow cars, but we got a deal on this silver one we couldn't turn down. It's more Beemer looking, but when I'm done it will lok good. I want to chrome the wheels too. And then when Ellis & I make the hood functional..

I don't think they fit either Mike. The guy at Les Schwab told me they are the same bolt pattern (4 3/4") but the GTO has front wheel drive offsets, so regular wheels won't clear. I'm sure I will find out soon enough.
