Alright I have decided to change my front end. Its being converted to an 03-05 style.

Here is a pic of the new front bumper I have.

This is a pic of the hood I'm getting tonight. Its the same style hood I have now except its for an 03+ Cav.

I will have more pics posted throughout my progress.

BTW: Comments and criticism is welcome!

I always found it funny how when the Cavalier was updated, it looked like they just turned the headlights upside down, switched sides, and called it a day.

Should save your money and get a LSJ or LNF ecotec to swap in.

I have a million ideas floating in my head right now :lol: . I'm just not sure what I wanna do as far as a motor, I've been thinking between 2.4 LD9, LSJ, LSX, 3.8 S/C, 3.4

I know I can easily get an S10 frame and modify it to fit on the Cav's Unibody and then drop a v8 of some sort down into it. As of right now with all the personal crap going on in my life I'm gonna have to go the cheapest route. I haven't done anything with the 2.4 my dad gave me yet, so I'll have to run the stock motor for another season until I can get more cash flow to support my habits.

Wow, Really? That is so awesome!!!


Ok,Ok I'm done with the sarcasm now :lol: I previously said that I like to do things different and be unique, So it kinda be like a sleeper to me. I'm not going to go that Extreme with it yet, but Eventually I will get Ignorant and go all out with it. As for now it will more than likely have either a 4cyl or 6cyl of some sort dropped into it.
