Well I'm very happy with the car, here is a picture of how I bought it, and on subsequent posts, pictures of how its sits today. It was purchased with 69,000 on it. Now running at about 86,000.

....and a pic of how it sits today...
L Tuned shocks/struts, DIY chrome grill, and 18x8 / 9 Moda R6" have made it look and handle much better. Also had the front cover resprayed, licence plate holes removed, and chips taken out.
(thanks for the tip, J CL!

Yes, I'm sure mine is mild compared to a mod junkie's car like yours, but hey it is my daily driver and I do have a 5.8L Vortech supercharged Mustang coupe (491 ft-lb rear wheel torque!) in the garage next to the GS...

Thanks for the compliments on the Moda's, I had these on my Mustang and they fit perfectly, (M2300K Cobra brake kit means it likes a deep offset out back, so the 45mm on these 9" wheels is optimal) but since my GS's OE 17's were low on tread, I slipped the Moda's over to the GS.
If your run across any more OE GS 18's, let me know!

Car looks great!!
Personally I think your car is what the 2nd gen. GS should have looked like from the factory. Great job. Love the wheels too.
