ive been lurking around the site for a while now to help with alot of the little questions and problems i needed to fix with my Ls. I finally decided to join up. I have an 02 LS8 that i bought from a friend. He was forced to sell it because he was being deployed. It was his baby. Unfortunatly right after i bought it he was killed in action while in iraq serving with the 82nd Airborne. So for the past year ive been modifying the car sort of as a memorial to him. i love the car (except for the damn transmission). Here are a few pictures.

Sorry to hear about your friend, I'm currently deployed so i know how it is. But the car is coming along great, and I love that GN in the backround
 
Hey whats up man. you car is CLEAN and Simple.. i Really like it.. i kinda over did mine.. but i Love flashy looking cars.. but i was debating on the clear bumper corners but it looks really good on your car. so its a possibility. i see you have a horizontal grille. post more pictures so i can see since we both have the same color and everything. is that grand national souped up?

and btw sorry to hear about your friend.

Yeah i like the clear corners. My friend put the grille and headlights on it before i bought it. The turn signals at night literally will light up the road 500 ft down the road. He also had the tailights tinted which is a very subtle difference.

sorry i dont have any better pics of the grille. ill try and get a few tomorrow.

As far as the Gn i basically built it from the ground up. Bought it at 16 as my first car. Has a built motor,bigger turbo,front mount,Methanol injection,Built trans. and i could go on but it would make me sick when i realized the money i have into it. Its an easy mid-high 10 second car.
 
hahahha.. u have any pictures of the tinted tails.. sorry to be a nusaince haha. but i just want to see some ideas.

ill get one for you tomorrow. They are tinted and also blacked out on the inside so that the brake like is only a square about 4inches diagnally and vertically.
 
Heres the closest i have to showing the taillights. Its not very noticible from this angle.
