First off i would like to say hello everyone and how i love this place. I have been bummin around these forums for a little bit now ever since i knew i was getting an alero. Well finally i got my car and i love it. I got it for extremely cheap cuz my uncle owns a shop and he fixed it for me.

Interior when i got it was in poor condition i guess u could say. Alot of stains and just dirty marks everywhere. I got it yesterday and have spent like 20 hours cleaning it and making it look nice.

Well heres the pictures so far. Going to clear corners next weekend!

It seems to be a constant theme on here, socks or bare feet when taking pics, WTF is up with that?

thanks everyone. It has 88000 miles adam337.

Guys the only problem is my front seats have a cuple cracks in the leather. i would like to get some nice seat covers or something. i bought some from like murrays and they dont fit right at ALL!!

Are there any good seat covers made especially for aleros or anything? can someone point me to a site where i can order ones or anything? Thanks!
