I'm about to buy an 83' SS w/ t-tops. Monte Carlo of course 305 engine. I can't wait love the t-tops almost like a drop. I looked at a 86' aero coupe but for the condition of it, it's not worth $4000. I have had 4 MC's. They are like Corvette's to me love em!

When I got my Anzio head lights they didn't specify for an SS or LT IMO they would fit any Monte so I am pretty sure all headlights are the same for the 06 Monte / Impalla

I'm pretty sure that the headlights were all the same in 06-07.
I like the newer somewhat but I don't like how it looks like an impala.

We are aware of the fact that GM considers the 06 & 07 part of the 6th generation. The "7th generation" thing is something that the general population of this forum decided on. To clarify certain parts of the 06/07 that are different from the 2000-2005.

A lot of people that do the swap don't look right. The orange one he took off the door moldings but don't have the side skirts. The car look ok but not 100. The smallest details on a car make a world of difference. If he would have put the 18" factory wheels on the black one u would love it. Also I replaced the chevy emblem on the trunk w/ the Corvette flag looks amazing. U really can't tell it an 02 unless u see my interior, and my windows are tinted. Will post pic in two weeks Im gettin my interior done back factory I had rips in my seats. New ostrich headliner and painting the dash bezel white. Also putting a kenwood double-din w/ navi in so it will be out soon!!!
