It may be flexible but I also found it very ugly

. Ive looked at a few wrecking yards and no luck so far

Edit : Dad in Michigan says hell " see what he can do" about the GT side panels, hopefully that means he'll get em for me hehe.

Chrome window trim FTL

Jake · 03-06-2007, 04:26 PM

Whats wrong with chrome window trim on a blue car with chrome rims? I think it looks pretty good

Bryan · 03-06-2007, 07:08 PM

^I agree. I love the chrome trim on the SEs w/ chrome rims. It's like the perfect accent or somethin.

what about all the $ you were talking about spending on a sc and/or a new car

Jake · 03-06-2007, 08:26 PM

Lowering isnt very expensive anyway

200 for the springs and 75 bucks to my moms friend

Bryan · 03-06-2007, 08:45 PM

Knowing someone or having experience with suspension components is almost necessary if you wanna lower for a decent price. Prices from shops for installation and alignment are pretty nuts.

Jake · 03-06-2007, 09:09 PM

Ya.... Shop where I bought my rims wanted 300 to lower it (plus 200 i had to pay for springs) And btw, price at any shop for anything is nuts, For christ sake shop charged my sister 149$ for spark plugs+wires and labor.

$300 to install springs which included the price of the springs? Thats not bad at all, that actually cheap, even without an alignment which should be extra. That's only $100 and it would take a couple hours to complete. Most shops charge $40-60/hr shop time... guy doing the work might only get $12-16/hr, but they also have overhead to pay and tools etc and they still have to turn a profit. Running a business isn't cheap and you don't do it to give away freebies. They're trying to make money, can't blame 'em for that.

I hate the way it looks, no matter what rims you have. Just my opinion though.

Jake · 03-07-2007, 04:26 PM

No.. that didnt include the price of the springs, 200 for the springs + 300 to lower it.
