Default Score For The Ladies!

I was browsing the Detroit craigslist Monday in between classes and I saw a red limited edition monte on there that was rolled. I called the guy and told him I wanted some parts off it.. Detroit is about 3 hours and 45 mins away from me, so I asked my mom if she would go and help me and we went yesterday. Left at 9 am and didn't get back until 11 at night, but man did I score! I had to share what I was able to get! Not to mention it was me and my mom.. and I've never done anything like this before and she doesn't like to get dirty.

Here's some pics, and also some pics of my Pink HIDs I put in last week.


Here's the Trunklid I got Yesterday as well!





Thanks for lookin. Been so excited about this stuff since I started my drive over there yesterday, CANNOT wait to put it all on.
I picked up- Full HS kit, front and rear bumpers, deck lid with vertical spoiler, red bowtie centercaps, sunroof motor, fog lights, lots of head light clips, trunk spare tire cover, and some other random things. Enjoy! Soon I'll post pics of the pieces painted and put on.

Nice find! Those are going to look great

I see the front bumper already has a plate cover/filler too lol

I like the pink glow of the HIDs, I bet it looks even better in person

What color is the hs kit going to be or is it staying silver?

Thanks everyone!

Yes, the HID's look way better in person, the pictures just don't like to get the full pink in there.

The HS is going to be black, seems like they are all silver and I was going to be a little different. Although the JRs are black, not trying to make a replica, just make it my own.

I feel really bad for the people who had the Monte, A girl bought it 5 months ago and had her BF put insurance on it, he let the insurance lapse and they didn't even get any money back for it. They were hit in the side and it rolled into a field on St. Patties weekend.. It was def totalled, but it was sooooo nice before it was rolled, pretty mint looking Limited Edition. Made me sad driving into the lot and seeing it. But I was pretty happy about getting all the parts. Me and my mom had a great time, she sat in our suburban taking pictures and playing on her phone, but she helped me load it all and paid for gas in our gas guzzling suburban, she always supports me with my car stuff.
