Before I bought it, it was involved in a minor rollover. whats funny is no glass was broken or anything, just ended up in a snowbank and hood, roof, fender and driver front door had a few dents. heres a few pics of that.boominlumina92's 1997 Pontiac Sunfireboominlumina92's 1997 Pontiac Sunfire

after rollover, no body work. you can hardly tell, besides the fender it was rolled.

I have since replaced the fender with a white, undamaged one, and the hood with a black, undamaged one. hope to get that painted soon. drivers door was replaced cuz it would sag and not line up right. the roof is the only evidence there was a rollover remaining.

Hey! Stupid question 4 ya. Does tinting the tails make them harder to see? I'm concerned mainly about safety, b/c it would suck not to be able to see the tails well. I've thought about doing the same thing, so I was just wondering.
