Thats nice. I can't tell if you added a wing or not but I can tell you removed the "se". Did you paint the red inserts yourself? Looks good man .

Yeah, I just put a stock spoiler on... GP's are one of those cars that look absolutely naked without one! I did all the interior work too, paint, new speakers, and best of all upgraded to leather (still no door panels though) instead of cloth! Thanks for all the compliments guys! Oh, yeah, Herc, I did replace the fender. Got a complete replacement piece off eBay, already painted black for $10 + shipping!! Oh the joy of eBay...

Yeah, with shipping, ended up costing me around $50... but still, pre-painted, no hassle, bolt it on and go!
As you guys can see, the guy that had it before me neglected the car appearance wise, still took good care of the engine/drivetrain, but hey, I bought it for a grand, and I've put about $1500 into it, and there ya go! I think she looks pretty good!
I'm torn between selling her and getting a 2dr GTP, or dropping in an L67 with lower miles... 140k on current L36 engine. What do you guys think I should do?

I say keep her and put in the new engine yourself... more fun that way and you can honestly say you built this car and are designing it the way YOU want it!

No L67, Herc? If I were to do that, I'd be paying someone to rebuild it, because that's not anything I'd wanna take on! I really want to hear the whine of the supercharger when you get up into those high RPM's... love it!
