LOL you guys are hilarious. I was thinking of doing a sunroof conversion. The cop asked me if I wanted to keep the deer and have it mounted I just laughed. I do have the deers antler that broke off and landed on my floor as a keepsake. I just found a 2004 alero with minor front damage I can pick up for 1500 dollars so I think I may get it and swap my front bumper cover on it for now. It only needs a bumper cover, washer fluid bottle, and ac condenser. Do you guys think thats a good deal?
Clutch1- yep im in wausau but cant say I have seen your car around.

Depends on the miles and what motor.
Mines a 2000 V6 with 156K on it and I expect to get about $1,800 when it does sell.

I wouldnt pay more than $1K for it.
THis is how I look at it...
If you were going to take that to a body shop its gonna cost a minimum of $1K to get that fixed up.
Whats the car worth fixed? Maybe $3500... Theres a reason this isnt fixed...

i'm not sure if your problems will buff out, zzy....
and i'm shocked at the lack of leg humping in this thread. The forum certainly isn't the same as it used to be.
i say keeps yours, fix it (obviously) and go from there. no reason to have another problem around. |

Do you guys think it would be a decent deal if I could get that alero for a grand? My alero will be fixed for me for free by my future father in law but it may take a few months so I need a car in the mean time and cant find too many beater cars that are decent in the 1,500 dollar price range.

Buy it for $1K, drive it as is or find a replacement bumper cover the same color.
Then when your car gets fixed sell this for profit.
win-win
Since Dr Cherry called it...
Where your pics at?
Let it begin!

Back to the topic . . . if i take the bumper cover off my silver alero and buy that 04 how hard is it to swap the bumper cover? It should just be held on by clips right? I know the car may look ghetto but it would be temporary til I could get a gray bumper cover for it and at least I would have a car. I only got my scooter to get back and forth to work and its no fun when its raining out  |
