Thank's guy's.

Well, I got around to getting my hood and rear bumper put on today. There are no more unsightly corrosion blisters on the hood and I’m now ready to have the dual exhaust put on. I also have to put the hood scoope and GT spoiler on. I thought that the easy part would be taking the flat convertible spoiler off. Wrong, it is double sided taped to the trunk and will not come off. If all goes well, it will be ready for my road trip south on the 24th. If I can’t get the spoiler to come off, I’ll just leave it until I come back.

Exaust

I finely got the exhaust done today. I went with H pipe system. I can’t believe the difference in the sound. I’m very happy with the outcome of this set up.

Spoiler

It took some time, but I got that old spoiler to come off. What a work out. I had to use heavy duty weed trimmer line and a heat gun to get it off. I washed it after and used Goo Gone to remove the rest of the double sided tape residue. Rubbed on some Turtle Wax, put on the GT spoiler and voila it’s done.

Thanks Guy's

Next in line is the OEM Pearl Gold Stripe. That will be done when the weather gets warmer.
