Just had my new hood painted and installed. The rear wing in the kit looks a little too ricer for me. Grills-maybe I've gotten used to the stock ones.

I love that color.
I've got the hood and the grills installed. I left the stock rear spoiler on too. I really like the SAP grills on my black car.

Looks good Skip. The scoops look pretty cool from behind the wheel too. I agree about the SAP spoiler. I'll stick with stock. Both the stock and SAP spoilers are for show only, but I think the SAP is too angular and detracts from the rest of the car. The only spoiler I've seen that I really like on the new GTO is the Arrowhead Performance lip spoiler. But I've heard too many horror stories about backorders and fitment issues. I was going to go get the SAP grills and paint them flat black, but the stock grills have grown on me too. Hope you're enjoying your car.

I just need to have the Torque Management turned off and the shifts in the auto tranny improved so maybe those 13.50s are every run.
