<sigh> here we go

Any body know why it looks like the smoke lense is seperating in places?

Little rock chip.

service tag for those who care

looks like the llittle ajuster screw clamp is broken, but that can come off an old one, little discoleration by the top vent, but not nearrly as bad as it would be up north.

rest of the pics



Foglights:good
Grille: good minus paint

delamination

very common in the 87-91 and 92-95 style taillights...

water and air gets in there and seperates the two lenses...pretty much not fixable..but you can tint them like i did mine

Those pics put a tear to my eye.. that B'ville looks exactly like mine, and I think I would die if mine had an accident like that.

I'm really sorry man :(
