Intro
Hi all, my name is Christian, I'm from Costa Rica (sorry for my bad english).
I've been on this forum for a over two years and this is my first post. I bought my 2003 Alero GX coupe, 2.2 ecotec, 5 speed manual trasmission with 37000 miles 3 years ago (I second owner). Well i just went over 62000 miles a few days ago and the car still running and look good whiteout problems ( except front bearings ) just maintenance, researching and learning all about my car. This site is awesome!.

Welcome...Clear those corners and the only thing that brings down the look of that car unfortunately is the Flyer's plate on the front...tsk tsk tsk...

if i were you dont worry bout anythin exterior. deal with performance and things that would make your car run better, smoother and faster. alotta cars have great looks on the outside but cant run with the big dogs. you may see cars with stock exterior (paint, window tint, ride height, rims and tires) but they have serious power under the hoood. so with that deal with your engine first.

you read my mind. But find parts for Ecotec is really hard.
Maybe 2 50 horsepower stickers for my doors.
