Chris why do you like the license plates to be in the lower intake of the front bumper so much?

Shade2012 · 04-29-2013, 12:26 PM

It looks like a buck tooth if you ask me..

[ChaosweaveR] · 04-29-2013, 12:32 PM

I dunno, I like the look.

Shade2012 · 04-29-2013, 12:33 PM

Tanner, any idea what that scratch on you side skirt driver side is from? Doesnt look like a curb would hit in that position. I'm just curious. Almost looks like a key scratch.

I have absolutely no idea. Many scuffs and scratches on the car came from whoever owned the car before me, including that one. I'm lowered and I have yet to put a mark on the car, besides the one of my rear bumper but even if I wasn't lowered I would of still hit it. Stupid rocks.

I'm not worried about it to much seeing as I want to get the SC/T kit and the kit will replace that skirt so it will be gone along with the other 90% of the scuffs on the car when putting on the kit.

Still deciding if I want it though, I really don't want to use my wheels year round with the type of snow we get and I hate how the SC/T kit looks with stock wheels, even if your car is lowered the car looks funny with stock wheels and the SC/T kit.

yeah I was just curious because that's a difficult spot to scratch like that. My GAGT had curd rash like no other on my side skirts from my brother owning it.

Tough choice, I'd hate to see those rims get even the slightest bit of damage from salt/winter use. But it would look sexy with the sc/t kit and the rims for sure.

Here is where Lana will sit until Friday at least, the only place I trust in this town. The GM dealer. Waiting her turn to have the coolant system checked out thoroughly.

haha measure the rubber on your rear tires before you leave..

bricooper78 · 04-30-2013, 02:29 PM

I've learned most of what I can do to a car due to not trusting ANYONE, aside of that whole $65 an hour BS. I'll learn, I got time

For how many silverados/tahoe/surburbans/camaros/corvettes they see on a daily basis, they know the LS motor like the back of their hands. The guy that took the car in, said he can have the intake manifold off in 10 min and back on correctly in 10 more minutes.

That's who I want working on my car.

bricooper78 · 04-30-2013, 07:03 PM

I'd rather get drunk and put different color parts on mine

I can only hope. I would hate to have to take my car 100 miles to where the only mechanic I can personally trust.

yeah, I don't trust anyone. Not even the GM dealer. I have to use them for alignments, and I even hate that. Once I move back to MI, my brother has a shop with an alignment rack and I'll be doing all my own from then on.

I took it in for an alignment at a Pontiac dealer in MI once... got the car home and there was grease flung all around my wheel well. They had put a hole in my CV boot! Never went to that dealer again.
