Ok- I'm starting off on the weak side-- my most recent mods have been a new cheep tonneau cover and a tail gate cap.

The liner is fixed, for now, but we'll see if i have to go back agian. Carefully inspect any mods you have done by Ziebart.

The window vents didn't line up quite right, but they said that I was lucky to have them as close as they are. They finally admitted that this misallignment was not right and fixed it.

They also messed up on the liner, and after four trips in and not even so much as an appology being offered, they have finally offered a free detailing, but they could have avoided giving me a $150 service had they inspected their work and appologized earlier.

Here is the inspiration for starting on modifying my truck: A simple mistake of grabbing the emergency break release rather than the hood release resulted in my truck rolling down the hill and ditching itself. Spardan's 1998 GMC Sonoma Spardan's 1998 GMC Sonoma
Spardan's 1998 GMC Sonoma$2,800 worth of damage- the bed was pushed forward and had to be straightened.

The truck was returned looking better than when I bought it in July of 2002. This is the first time that I have ever even considered modifying a vehicle as I use to drive a 1992 Mercury Tracer (ice blue headlights were extreme for that car). This picture was taken on the dealer's lot at the point of delivery after the repairs.
I am now regretting the decision to have them put the GMC and Sonoma logos back on. They originally reversed the logos putting the GMC on the right and the Sonoma on the left.

This is for the many of you that don't even remember what the stock engine looks like. This is one engine that I'm not looking forward to digging into. Spardan's 1998 GMC Sonoma Spardan's 1998 GMC Sonoma

The interior is stock as is the rest of the truck, but that is the one area that I view as the most difficult to modify since it is just a standard cab.
