Looks good other than the fake hood scoop. I don't think anybody on here is a fan of those so be ready for some criticism  What year? What engine? How many miles? I like the wheels....awesome color...is it lowered? Looks like it. Welcome to the fam!

Its an 02 with a 3400 V6, it has 170,000 km's on it. And the hood scoop was on it when I purchased it. And Im not sure if its lowered but I think it is. The previous owner was OCD about keeping it tip top so its def in good condition. I have put in an aftermarket deck along with a clarion and and infinity bass. Replaced the stock muffler and exhaust with a Cherry Bomb, Glass Pack muffler and a chrome tip that the mechanic had kicking around.

No you take your lights apart and pull out the amber reflector inside. First time i did it.. Took about 4-5 hours to do both. I was being careful. Now i can knock it out in probably 2.5 hours. Done it like 8 times lol.
