Wow, I saw the pictures, and I almost thought you stole my car... mine used to look exactly the same way... but lets see some pictures from all the way around...

What all have you done to it... ? BTW how the heck do you manage to keep the headlights so clean, mine are getting all foggy, I guess the plastic is getting old... and I am planning to upgrade the projectors and see if I can polish the lenses...

Here is mine in storage last winter, sadly I drove it all this winter and it got ruined, all sorts of chips on the paint and stuff, I guess I have to try and fix as much as I can.... before the summer comes...

Well keep us updated on the progress... or if you wanna check out some of my upgrades you can dig around here or try http://www.cardomain.com/ride/3006002

Dont mean to jack your thread but here are some pics of mine... same CS as yours...

A Year ago...

haha, great story actually, my headlights are brand spanking new!! Some lady came barrowling down the parking lot as I was pulling out and she just about took my entire front clip off. I had to get a new bumper cover, impact bar (all that mess) two brand new headlights and one brand new right fog light. So at the shop they also refinished the hood. Before then my lights were getting foggy also, and the bumper cover was beat up from stones and just being on the road. Even tho it really made me mad, I was better off letting my insurance company rebuild my front end! I've got some detailing to do on the outside, the winter really takes its toll.

So far, I've got the euro grill, a new left fog light, led reverse and tail/brake lights, eyelids (still wondering about how those will look), and I also will be putting in hid fogs and new d2s bulbs, mine are still oem. Just waiting for warm weather. Oh I almost forgot. I did this last summer..... I love it!

Love the Caddy emblem in the rear window. Where's you pick that up at?

Here's an update. The past few days have been really nice so I was able to get out and detail my cat a little bit. Not done with the grill yet. I'm gonna chrome it and leave the border black as soon as that nice warm not so windy day comes around. New emblem, fender ports. More to come!

What size tires are you running on there...

The grille and emblem look great but you got to do something about the color showing underneath...

235 45s. They ride very nice and corner nice too! I do need to do something about the grill. Now that I put the new emblem on I'm thinking about leaving it black with chrome border. I'll have to paint the inside of the hood black also. And the cap to the washer fluid. That's shows through too. Or paint it chrome and I won't have to worry about the inside hood color. I've been doing a lot of staring and thinking. Decisions decisions...
