This weekend I took the GS350 to the Syracuse Nationals, while there I pick up the bumpers, headlight bezels, taillights bezels for the Wildcat from Sandy's Bumper Mart. Starting to see light at the end of the tunnel.

This week, the front bumper, head light bezels, grille surround, and signal light bezels were installed on the big cat. The little cats watched.

Louie,
It looks wonderful, I'd be afraid to leave it parked within 100 feet of anything. You are going to need crime scene tape to keep other cars and idiots away from it.

That sounds like a very reasonable cost for that amount of work. If you have been happy in the past, that is great advertising. What kind of turn around time did you experience? Being that Syracuse is only about 150 from here, I willhave to write that down and keep it for future reference. I get to Syracuse and Cicero about 4 or 5 times a month.

Stevo, the turn around is between 8 to 10 weeks, provided no commerical accounts flood him with work. The amount of stuff you drop off will also determine the amount of time for returns.

There has been no updates due the fact that last weekend was the Buick Nationals in Hebron, Ohio where they had the first ever GSX Reunion. I took the 71 GSX and had a ton of fun with all the other GSX owners and regular Buick guys and gals. A few pictures of the event.
