Cool First pics since getting DA BOLT back.

It has been a while since I got my L back from the body shop. I'm happy with the results, they also gave me a four year warranty on the paint and a lifetime warranty on the body work. There are some changes on the L. The first and obvious one is no more graphics on the side, no more hood scoop for now and shaved emblems on back, but I stuck an SVT emblem on anyways. I also fabricated a new back spoiler which I think looks a little bit more classy. Tell me what you think.

BERT.

Some chrome tap would look killer on that spoiler.

Thanks for the nice compliments and yes it does look cleaner than when I had all that other stuff on, I guess I'm still a little rice because of the spoiler, but I think it came out great, just in time for the BIG L gathering in Orlando this Saturday coming.

The other person's insurance took care of everything including the rent a rice, but the actual bill was a little over $10,000. Here's what the damage looked like before.

Sorry, no chrome tape............. but, I plan to cap it off on top with black body side molding which will give it a finished look, you'll see it at Old Town, see you there.

Looking good in your neighborhood! May I ask about the tailgate handle and bed caps, why not color match them or are you running a black/grey/red theme here?

I'm sticking with a red, black and chrome theme for now.
