Hello Everyone,
I'm Scott, and i have owned an Alero for about 10 years.
I can't believe i am just finding this forum now. I bought my Alero new in 2003 and have about 165,000 miles on it.
I am currently trying to decide what to do with it. It still looks good and i have patched as best i could some rust spots, but i am worried about the other things i can't see. I am still on the original engine...
Oh and if i would have found body kits 5 years ago i would be all about it, but now.... since i am trying to decide if i get a new car, i am second guessing investing any more money in the Alero.

Does anyone have any links to other kits, that might be even cheaper?
Issues i have had with my Alero:
- Ball bearings went out within my first year.
- My rear defrost stopped working, but i got in there and soldered the wires. Haven't had an issue since.
- My rear break lights went... i needed to replace some relay.
- My Cruise control went on me about 2 years ago, and never got it fixed.
- Just got a new blower motor for my heater.
- My wipers sometimes studder when thy are in use.... still haven't fixed this, but it doesn't happen every time it rains.
I took these a couple months ago:
I am not sure if i am gonna try to get a new car or what, but as a trade in, it is worth about $800.... i was offered $1,500 for it from a dealership, but i am sure i could get more for it selling it myself.
if i canged anything, i would like to get a body kit like the one i posted above, tint the windows, do something with the exhaust... a new hood with some kind of scoop would be nice.... New tires and rims for sure. I would love to put Lambo doors on it, but i don't think that will ever happen....
