i went shoping for places to put it on today and no GM dealer would do it they said its to much time to do it. so one guy at the parts counter told me to go to a place down the road and ask for a guy named eddy. so i went there. and he came out looked at it and said he will do it for $200 thats painted and put on the car. so it should be on the car in the next month or so.

the pontiac already has the holes on its front bumper. thats why he ordered the lip in the first place. should fit just fine.

I've seen alot of j-body guys cut slits for their lips on the 00-02's. Yes it takes time and patience but its nothing a free day and a dremel can do.

I know Mike, but I actually like the simple lip the G5 already has on the back and the sideskirts. The Front bumper wouldn't be bad, but the lip would keep it more simple.

The spoiler on that G5 I love and may pick that up, depending on price...
