Wow, that's a beauty!!!  Even if you do have stone chips or anything, that color is easy to blend in.


The most mint Monte Carlo SS I've ever seen was this Dale Earnhardt edition we had at work 2 years ago.  2002 with 2000km, I tell you this thing looked like it came fresh off the truck, not a stone chip, or imperfection of any kind.  It got sold for $25,000!!

yeah i have a couple small stone chips but not too bad, what im more concerned about is the series of cracks in the front bumper, most of them can be covered by the Tony Stewart grille im gonna order before too long, but theres one to the right side under the edge of the headlight that is quite noticeable if your looking for it, might see what the body shop has to say about that one.  

I got the deal done today and already i started modding the car... put my clear corner headlights in and added the SLP lower grill.  wasnt even home for 5 mins and i had the headlights replaced already lol

hey i like the car too, and i cant see anything wrong with the front end, looks great to me. and i would keep the L67 if it was mine, for simplicity, but drop the supercharger, and pickup a turbo

thats exactly why im not so worried about getting it fixed right away i'll snap a pic of the damage for you guys so you can see what im up against.

blower isnt going anywhere, turbo is nice but looking at this engine bay i wouldn't like to be trying to fit a turbo in there... im sure one would fit but there isnt alot of room, thats for sure

how about one of them turbo systems where the turbo is at the back of the car, and same with the intake. then the pipes run upfront, and into the intercooler... plus you could keep the SC too i think...
