Just had my new hood painted and installed. The rear wing in the kit looks a little too ricer for me. Grills-maybe I've gotten used to the stock ones.

I love that color.

I've got the hood and the grills installed. I left the stock rear spoiler on too. I really like the SAP grills on my black car.

Looks good Skip. The scoops look pretty cool from behind the wheel too. I agree about the SAP spoiler. I'll stick with stock. Both the stock and SAP spoilers are for show only, but I think the SAP is too angular and detracts from the rest of the car. The only spoiler I've seen that I really like on the new GTO is the Arrowhead Performance lip spoiler. But I've heard too many horror stories about backorders and fitment issues. I was going to go get the SAP grills and paint them flat black, but the stock grills have grown on me too. Hope you're enjoying your car.

I just need to have the Torque Management turned off and the shifts in the auto tranny improved so maybe those 13.50s are every run.

Is it possible to strip the paint on the factory wheels and polish them up to a mirrior finish??
