Well some of you may remember my old car, it was recently rear ended while I was stopped in traffic..a dodge Dakota slammed in the back of me doing about 30km, I heard his tires squealing for a few seconds..he bent the rear fenders, pinched both sides of the rear frame, the trunk was all buckled around the spare tire compartment, best part was...his whole front end (hood, rad, bumper were mangled LOL his truck got owned)..so my baby was declared a write off with 4k+ damage, she took it like a champ..here's some pics of the car before and after:

After:

After all the work i did to it..custom interior paint, cai, strut bars, grill mesh, rims, tires, sound system wiring, etc... shes a write off, best part was that I took everything out before my insurance got ahold of the car :lol: .. but now here's my new baby: 2003 Oldsmobile Alero GLS 3.4 V6 ~145,000K
(previous owner took care of her, put in a interstate battery, k&n rectangular filter, power steering pump done 1 month before selling, brand new rubber on the stock rims, i got an amazing deal for what I paid)

When I brought her home:

I know its November, but I just had to throw them on..new metallic paint job sittin on chrome..sexy (to save some future speculation, I PLAN on lowering it.)

I re-installed everything that I had in my old alero, I just don't feel like posting pics..here's my old thread in case you really want to see lol

Good deal, Although I liked the stripes on your white one. Clean car, good find. Must have been a 97 or later Dakota, I just sold a 94, and it was a tank, if you'd have rear ended an Alero at 30 KMH with it the trunk of the car would have been in the rear seat, lol, and maybe a cracked grill on the truck.

That figures, after 96 they became mostly plastic, but before then they were tanks like I said. Mine was a 94, and I hit a Kia Sephia once, totalled it, my bumper got about a 1/4" deep dent, from contact with the Kia's engine :lol:

clean looking car, not a fan of the rims though, spokes are too wide for my tastes.

We had one on the 14th at Timmies on Airport Rd. I mentioned it in your other thread, you said you were working... It was fun, only 4 cars, but it was a good time for sure...
We are looking at another one in the summer, hot sun beats cold rain any day lol
