Got me a front lip for my GT

Well after doing my taxes and getting a veryy nice return I paid off my credit card and money I owed my parents. I still had a ton left so I decided to buy the front lip for my GT. Since my dad is the Body Shop manager at a GM dealer I told him to order it, turns out they had it in stock. I was kinda floored by the price... it lists at $327. i got it for $175 plus Im getting it painted for free. Should be going on this weekend so Ill get some pics up then.



Edit: oops thought I was in appearance. If a mod could move it that'd be great or is it okay here?

Haha yeah I love my connections. I bought my car there and got GM employee pricing too lol.
Yeah its 175 cnd came to 197 after taxes and everything. but uhhh I dont think I can get another. According to my dad the reason why he got so cheap was it was an old part #. I guess they updated the PN so it was an older one they had so thats why it was cheap. Same part tho so Im happy either way.

Word. Mines coming off a friend's car ($20) and getting painted installed through a mutual friend ($50).

Well its on, and I love the way it looks.So much better now. I took my time getting the bumper off and had to cut the slots with a knife cause I thought I had a rotary tool but nope didnt work. But its on and I love it Just gotta watch out for curbs now

However afterwards I discovered a possible problem with the trans, if any one can help take a look at my thread in the problems section.
