Re: front choices

I'm a fan of OEM w/ a lip.. a 04/05 front end conversion takes a lotta parts too, and isn't really cost effective IMO.. you need HL's, hood, bumper, fenders and a dif rad. support.

Re: front choices

It sounds like you want to go more of a fully aftermarket front bumper instead of an OEM bumper with a front lip.

It all depends on if your plan on keeping the other parts of your kit. If so, whats the rest of the car look like (more pictures)- you want it to flow.

Re: front choices

look.. i know i dont have the best or fastest car around, but neither do you.
making fun of my olds and saying that its a car for grandparents and soccer moms isnt going to make that ugly *** bumper look any better.
if i had a pontiac grand am chances are you wouldnt say **** about it being for grandparents or soccer moms. and if you knew **** about cars, you would know that my alero and a grand am are sister cars, like the firebird and camaro, for example. and if you had any sense at all, you could tell by judging from the background and the quality of the rims on my car in the picture, that the picture is not an actual picture of a car, but a computerized drawing of a car, with photoshopped rims on there.
you are a jackass, and you can argue with me all you want
the bumper looks like ****
