No mine are aftermarket, and normally the ss/sc doesn't have a lower grill.

Yesterday I installed an under body and wheel well kit and filled her up.

(please, no 'rice' comments. It only makes YOU look like an ass for putting down other peoples likes and opinions)

Today I cleaned and got her washed, as well as install two more interior lights in the back seat. I also put on my CSS.net decals on the back windows, and de-badged the two GM logos on the front fenders.

I've already corrected that problem by moving the side lights back a bit, so there is no more gap

I plan on lowering it, but probably not until around winter time.

ya its not done yet. He fixed all the dents and new hood is painted. He has to call my insurance company to come out because the insurance only gave us $3700 to get it fixed and hes going to need more. The trunk still needs to be replaced. everything else is finished.

what happened to it?

mine might be at a body shop for a period of time while i'm gone... repainting hood/front bumper/trunk rock chips and scratchs and such... might get the visual evo mod whatever you want to call it painted in also..

maybe grand sport stripes..

I swapped out my sportlines for some cms springs. car sits about half a inch higher I think.

then took everything off the car to install a phenolic spacer. ended up messing up the thread inside the intake manifold when putting everything back on. got a new manifold put everything back on and went to start car. it locks itself and doesn't turn on. might be coolant getting into cylinders. prolly didn't put the cores in the IM correctly when I swapped the dual pass over onto the new manifold. Will be taking car apart again today after work and locating problem

ya but when you have to watch your car getting beat up from hail it sucks. There was nothing i could do but watch. I was crying my ass off. I though it was a goner. luckily, the sun roof and every single window didnt get a single crack.

Hopefully you didnt bend anything, might want to do a compression test and/or leak down
