I've had this car since Summer 2006. I really love my car and take really good care of her.

In my sparetime I think up new ideas of what else I can do to improve it. I appreciate your interest.
If you like what you see tell me and give me some good feedback. Thanks

Current upgrades:

-Added driving lights -my old Pilot lights had a chunck of ice do them in
    -Painted running light frames black
    -Remote switch driving lights
    -Wired in relay switch on wiring to driving lights
-Lighting grill of engine with red LEDs
-Hipro Power Xenon HID Light bulbs 9006 and 9005 (blue bright) -they have seem to dull over the last year of use of them                                                        

-Skylark shifter knob
-Shifter boot (custom by me)
-Genuine Chevy floor mates
-High strength (hard drive) magnet on oil filter (helps pull any metal shavings from oil)
-Oil full-synthetic Valvoline
-K&N oil filter -does make some good difference for the price
-Front strut bar from Olds Achieva
    Painted black
-2x Flowmaster 40 Series Delta Flow mufflers
-2x Chrome dual Megaflow Exhaust tips
-Cluster gages blue LED back-lights
-Blue LED shifter gages
-Blue HAVC knobs and door/window buttons
-Blue window and locks buttons-had to soider some of the in
-Underseat lighting with blue LED-Street Glow
    -intergrated with automatic nighttime lights system
    -hidden switch
-Blue glove box light
-Manufactured my own FWI with heat shield (deleted windshield washer tank)
-APC cone air filter
-Sealed up wheel well so slop, snow and rain won't contact air filter.
-Moddified aftermarket small coolet tank to washerfluid tank that resides in front of right section of radiator
-Re-stabilized and attached spoiler w larger mounts
-Painted front Chevy bow tie all black
-5.25 Pioneer Speakers in front 55 watt
-6x9 Pioneer speakers in rear 85watt
-iPod Griffen radio transmitter-works decently not the cleaneast but you get what you pay for
