So it seems like everyone on here hate the idea of a alero/grand am vehicle, but you know what i like the idea. ever since i bought my alero i have been looking at that front clip and been wanting to change it. i came on here for ideas and it seems you guys dont even want to look into it,think about,or even give good feedback. but im going for it. i want to make it a custom,dont want to be like everyone else. but hey thanks . this is given me more motivation

I say, do it if it's what you want to do... the goal is to get your car the way you want so it will be unique

It's not the truck's fault. I was thinking the owner or concept designer.

There's a reason a large portion of us hate the idea. It's because many of us are Oldsmobile FANATICS. We love our Oldsmobiles, we do a little modifying here and there, some of us do A LOT of modifying. but in the end, everything about the car we love screams OLDSMOBILE. Just imagine somebody at your Christian church thinking it's a great idea to get 666 tattooed on their kids' foreheads, wanting to show it off and be proud of it, but can't figure out why everybody else in the church doesn't like it.

And besides. There are certain things that just don't go well together. I think we need to get one of our really good Photoshop experts to put together a series of good chops from different angles that will look realistic and show exactly how badly the lines and designs will not compliment each other.

now THAT I can agree with. it IS your car, and it IS your expression. All I'm saying is don't expect a bunch of people in here to be excited about it, like it, or tell you how great it looks when you get done.

I also say, how many people are "more motivated" to invest time, money and labor into something "just because everyone else is going to hate it". You might be excited about it at first, but in the end, you'll probably get tired of people ragging on it and start hating it too.

Go for it, and good luck. I think it would be cheaper, easier, and better looking to graft a section of the scoops you like from the GA into the Alero hood and call it a day. But hey, that's just MY opinion, and you go ahead and do what YOU want.

That sums it up perfectly. Very few people can understand why I'm making my Tacoma right hand drive. When they ask why I'm doing it, I say "because I want to". That's all that matters.

I was close to doing it since need bumper fenders and headlights. Went to buy it and actually found some alero fenders so stuck with an alero saved me $40 by not getting ga hood and headerpanel.
Would of look kinda strange but wouldn't of cared. Just the front bumper has those ribs on it aleros don't

^ 04-05 GA's have the same design as the alero, they got rid of the plastic molding and gave it the same body line...

For some reason Aleros don't hold their value as well as Grand Ams do, at least here in the midwest anyway. When I bought my Alero 2 1/2 years ago a comparably equipped GA was gonna cost me 1-1.5K more. And at the time I was looking to buy a GA because of their styling.

Didn't know that about the last ga's. Actually don't think I've seen one lol.This front looks better to me then what you posted I dunno just does to me.

*please resize the picture*

If are going to go thru the trouble of doing it why not get body kit front bumper? Pls not andys style kit.
