For those that don’t know… I sold my Grand Prix. I bought Yetti’s Jetta and started fixing it up the past 2 nights after work. The front bumper was off the car, and painted silver. Front fenders were flat black, big flat black patch from previous body work on the drivers quarter, and it was still on studded snows mounted to 16" steelies. I painted the bumper, fenders, quarter, and cleaned the interior up a little bit. The car still needs a few things. Immediate Plans: ECU Flashed to delete all emissions BS Coilovers (cheap-o) Future plans: Catless turbo-back (cheap-o) GLI lip kit New Black housing ebay headlights w/fogs GLI tails New headliner/pillars/rear deck Wrap them all in faux suede Custom Diamond Racing steelies in a staggered 18x8.5/9.5 Here’s what it looks like now that I got my hands on it… Somewhat fixed up: (dumpy cell phone pic, but you get the idea) ![http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v661/jimp2001/898abd07.jpg](http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v661/jimp2001/898abd07.jpg) ---
