Figured I may as well post these since everyone else is posting fall pics :beerchug:

Pulled in to the new place to work on it last week and figured I would take a couple quick pics since it looked good. Basically the same, but down a little lower on the second one.

Looks great Ryan. The blacking out really helped modernize it.

Also, I know I am HORRIBLE with this type of stuff, no photoshop skills whatsoever as well as no photoshop / only MS paint.... I have always wondered how this would look and although this in no way is exactly what it would look like, it gives me an idea of what it would look like :lol: Hate on if you want.

Still the best looking $500 bargain I have ever seen! Hopefully the motor holds out awhile for you after your recent scare.

I like the solid front bumper. I'm sure Matt could Plastic Weld that for ya! haha

:bwoohoo:

More fall pics!! Looks good! I would love to find a car like that for $500 (even if it was a little slow :lol:)! And I do like the look of that solid front bumper as well!

I'm off tomorrow, so I should just go out and take pics as well, dirty or not!

I was just thinking about what it would look like if you blacked out the lower grill area and around the fog lights, kind of like the G8's lower grills. I never really like the lower part of that SE front end. Then I scroll down and find you're already thinking about doing something to it.

I like the look of the solid front end, but it makes the license plate hole look funny... Would have to fill that in somehow, IMO...

Car looks great, Ryan, love the black 20 spokes!!!

Looks great Ryan! I'm kinda digging the slots going all the way across...

That second one looks G6 GXP-esque.
