That hardware is sure purdy.
The wheels Im not sure I like them, they would grow on me after a while I think, especially in person, but not a bad design overall.

I believe I may invest in the hood shocks for my Cavalier. I have them on my Beretta and love them.

Your car is looking great! I really like the wheels too.

oh I like those hood shocks. very nice. do they offer a chrome version? LOL

I love seeing the subtle things go into this car year after year. It tickles me to know you bought it from brand new and still seem to find enjoyment in it even after so many years.

keep up the good work!



RIP silver car. You will be missed.

To one of the bolts that holds the lower radiator support to the car. For my bumper setup it was prefect.

Damn that's exactly where I wanted to go but the 03-05 lss bumper doesn't have any openings there.

That is some awesome quality. I'd say right up there if not better than goPro.

I'd don't think the Homer Simpson's speed hole mod was a success. You have to go through the sheet metal not dent it.


On a serious note, How does the parking brake feel and hold compared to the stock drums?

It is GREAT!!! No issues. I know people who have had issues with the neon ebrake adjustment. I did not make any adjustments and it works better than my drums did.
