sorry for the cell phone quality pics...all i have for the time being.
if you cant read it, its an LS Sport emblem on the back.
out with the old:
in with the new:
I like it minus the tails
had a blown ecotec swapped 2000 cavy, now just an 02 Grand Am, and a 74 BMW 2002...
agreed
altezzas on black look so cheap imo
either black em out or get some stockers
14.4 @ 101 Bradenton Motorsports Park 11/22/08
tails came on the car.
so shut it!
lol
they need to be changed, inside lights dont work... toyos maybe.
Looks better!! need some toyo tails will look great on the black!!

I agree on the tails. I'm glad to see you got it painted. That kit looks really sharp .
Looks better, but my suggestions would be to go with toyo's since they look hot on black.
Also, I would suggest you drop it! A pro-kit or sportline would make your car look that much better.
oh, and get a better camera....

X3... Smoke them a little and it would be golden, but i like them as is tbo. But what do i know? I have a sunfire, all of our aftermarket tails are gay. lawl =P
get better/more detailed pics
but from what i can see, it looks good. btw, ive always loved ikaris in white. A+ on the rim choice.
I dig it.
Different tails or those tinted+ drop = mint
hey thanks guys!
i dont own a camera nor do i care to spend money on one. ill just use a friends
last time we used Bobby's (98z24ragtop) and he got flack for his lense? and his camera is nice...
so it seems there will always be nay sayers....Altezzas are good looking to some... not to others...
IMO everyone needs to jump off the bandwagon and do their own thing with their cars.
there are so many aftermarket parts for our cars that in reality you could never see the same car twice and its almost a shame to see people being so trendy with their cars.
make it your own. but make it well. quality never goes out of style. write that down.
Looks really good now Tom
IMO Definitely use some red metalcast on those tails. The chrome just breaks it up too much for me.

agreed.
not gonna mod the altezzas....
gonna lose them. (inner lights broken)
came on the car, no loss on investment.
few more bad quality pics for all you ppl who are IN LOVE with my lil sisters camera har har har
Looks good. Id go to a wrecker and grab some stock tails if it were mine, they can be had for next to nothing these days. It is your car though so as long as you like them thats all that matters. Any chance you can fix that front bumper sag? Under the headlights looks horribly off.

not a chance with out goin all out and molding in the gap. the bumper is not the right shape. (gotta love aftermarket parts)
but at least they are evenly off right? lol
not just one like...perfect and one droopin. (?)
i just may go look for some stockers...

AHHHH yah gotta love aftermarket kits. One of the many reasons I went back to a stock kit. The rear looks like you got a nice fit, seems to me thats always the one thats off (mine was anyway) and a bi*ch to fix. Could you modify a stock crush guard or put some small brackets behind? Or is what your saying its like to wide so when you button the sides of the bumper up it pushes the middle down?
"Straight roads are for fast cars, turns are for fast drivers"-Colin McRae
like for real, when you look at the "line" of the top of the bumper as it flows under the corner lights and then droops under the main light you notice that if i were to push up on the kit to try and have it less of a gap under the main headlight...then it would be too far up on the corners...
see what im sayin?
its just the shape. its not drooping per se... thats just the shape of it.
the only fix then would be to mold a fiberglass piece under each. i have zero experience. i agree it would be nice to have it fit well...
I see. Sounds like making some cuts and reglassing is your only way. Im the kind of person I just cant look at something thats crooked or a line is off on my car. Id be doing something to make it less noticable. Never the less, car looks good painted. Any other plans besides changing out those tails?

make money. lol
headers back...
B&M
paint whole car
new wheels
fix bumper lol (or new if i cant? im sure someone could help me)
new carpet, black..just cause.
harness' on a half cage or harness bar.
Making money is always a good start lol I can hardly wait for the harness bar OEM is making, should turn out awsome. Going to look sexy as all hell back there and serve a purpose. Rk sport made a half cage for our cars. I havent looked into that option for a long time now. I wonder if its still available?
