I will post up a short (yet long) write up of my car.

I sold my 98 LGT to use as a down payment on this LGT.

I bought it with a few modifications already installed.

I'll explain as we go through pictures.

Visually stock-

However, hiding behind the front wheels are a set of DBA4000 Series Drilled and Slotted Rotors -

And under the hood a CNT Catted Downpipe -

I didn't want to keep it looking like every other stock legacy out there, so I started making some changes.

I installed a rear lip spoiler on the top of the rear window and some Flapatax Mudflaps -

Then I also installed some rain guards as well -

I then started thinking about changing wheels, so I picked up a set of wheels and set them up against the current wheels to see if I liked them. I didn't. So I sold them.

Then a curb decided it wanted to spring up out of the middle of a parking lot and bite my bumper. (Not a visual mod I wanted)

By this time it had gotten into the snow season (I decided to relocate the front license plate frame to the damaged part of the bumper to cover it up somewhat) -

At this point I decided I wanted more performance. So I bought myself a Gimmick Motorsports Exhaust.

And of course when you do full exhaust, you get a tune, I went with a Cobb Accessport Stage 2 OTS map-

Now because I still had the bumper issue I was tired of looking at, I started acquiring parts to fix it. I had to replace a headlight due to a lower mount breaking, so I bought a set of 05 headlights with the blacked out insides.

As it was getting into the warm part of the year at this point, I figured Tint would be a good idea. So I got Utah Legal limit tint.

https://scontent-b-sea.xx.fbcdn.net/hphotos-frc3/250783_3877399289746_65688096_n.jpg

I got the new bumper painted and installed, As well as the new headlights in, and I plasti dipped the fog light surrounds.

But I was still needing something to make my car different. So I did a wheel swap, I traded my stock LGT wheels for a set of wheels from a buddy. Supplied a look I wanted!

Some more time had passed and I grew tired of the black wheels. I wanted to make my car less subtle.
So I got a hold of some primer and gold paint. The outcome was just what I was wanting!

Since I am not an amazing photographer -

I got with another friend and he took me some good pictures!

And just because the cops are pretty cool -

I've installed a Grimmspeed Crosspipe, and ported manifold collectors, as well as a catless up pipe.

And that is where it sits as of now.

Well I've decided to put this up for sale. I need an SUV. I need something a little more off road oriented. So we will see what happens. :/
