I bet the rear bumper has one huge hole in the back. :lol: It is kinda ugly, and I really don't like the paint job on it either.... The rims even look nasty...

The second alero 442 with the northstar had a 4.6 liter Aurora v-8 with 475 hp and a 5 speed getrag manual, you could laugh at its looks all day long but it would smoke ya. The grilles are 1971-1972 442 grilles grafted into a production bumper with 2001-2003 Aurora fog lamps.... Hey, I like those wheels :)

As Iron dog said, it would smoke yer ass! The hood is awesome except for the very front part of the scoops. That little nub that sticks up is stupid.
They basically too an Aurora grill and put a 1970 442 grill into a rectangular opening in the bumper. They were trying to pay hommage to the 442's of yesteryear but failed. Why take a car with curvy lines and put squares on it? Doesn't make sense but I would still drive that kick ass Alero!!!
As for the purple, I guess things from the 70's are big right now and the guy who designed it must be a Donny Osmond fan.
Right now all the young ones are saying Donny Who? Who is that?

I like the paint design, but the colors are horrible. I don't mind the body kit. The rims are hideous, as is the gargantuan wing.

Behind the pink one looks like one done with brown highlights, that at least looks more like an original 442 color scheme, the pink and purple are just :nuts: :badidea:
Not that it helps that much, but makes them less fugly.
