Next Mod/next Check

[bkathsalero]

Soooo The next OFFICIAL mod, (besides all my workbench 1/2 done trying new crap idea mods) Is a Grand am gt front end swap!!! I'm going to start out stock with just gt bumper, fenders, hood, and headlights and work my way up to after market hood, fenders, and lights. Then at some point I will add a bodykit. Snag a ga bumper and alero the rest of the kit. Let me know if anyone wants a how-to. <- Mainly newbs due to the fact that this will all bolt up like a breeze of fresh air. If that even made sense :lol:

i like the grand am gt much better as a whole car... except for the interior... but i would be curious to see the front end on a alero

[99alerogirl]

man by the time you get done you're gonna have a full grand am!

[bkathsalero]

haha I was just thinking that :lol: I was going to go with a malibu to mix the 3 n-bodys but malibu fronts make me want to throw up, so do their rears, interior, name, etc......

And easy there colonel6632 I so happen to have that un-liked gt interior in my pretty little alero:lol:

[99alerogirl]

yeah i never really liked the GA interiors, but i think it would look sweet in an alero... just to be different haha

[bkathsalero]

HATERZ!!!! :p

See what it is is that I own this alero. And I'm trying my hardest to turn it into a grand am so I have no relation to these GOOFY!!! alero owners :lol:

Get some pics and good luck. I plan to do the same but Im just gonna save and get the after market parts first. Do you plan to get the SC\T lip?

[bkathsalero]

I was going to get the sc/t lip but the price made me choose not to do to the fact that the front end will remain stock for about 1 month as I build after market parts on it. And plan on the aas combat kit for ga and alero so it all flows together nicely

Headlight housing
Two headlights
Two fender
And a hood
All good shape
All for 350.. Good deal or no?

[DOHC_tuner]

Im going to get my stuff from certifit.com They have a local store here.

Caboose yeah I did see your post. Thats an awesome site. But I could not find them for the Alero. Do the grand am windows interchange too?

[Caboose73]

ya everything from a grandam can swap over except the tails and trunk

[bkathsalero]

Anybody have opinion on $350 for full front end swaps parts?
good? bad?

[DOHC_tuner]

check out http://www.certifit.com/ they have good prices.

When my girl's alero got in a accident I got the whole front end minus one headlight and pass. fendor for under 300 bucks. And these were all new never installed parts.

[bkathsalero]

ahhh I cant do after market parts, they seem to NEVER fit like oe. Only nice thing is that my body shop has an account for certifit, so discount price. Came to 278.25 which isn't bad w/o headlights. But non oe is like walking into the forest at night for me.

[DOHC_tuner]

I was sceptical on the same issue yet the parts fit perfect when I personally installed them on the Alero. I even purchased some twin post mirrors for my alero and they fit fine. They seem good quality so I guess Im just lucky.

[bkathsalero]

maybe I'll buy a hood/ fender from them see how they line up together. Most likely keep the bumper oe for sure tho. Thanks for the site. When do you plan on your swap?

And if you dont mind me asking...
Fiberglass doors!!!! :ohmy:
