Just bought this awesome machine 2days ago. LOVE it. Plan on exhaust, programmer (when I can find one, will keep posted if I do), cold air intake, and some 20's (when I can find some I like) for now...... since I cant leave anything stock. Will post more pics as I go.
It was purchased new from the Saab/GM dealer in Estonia, then had one owner til i got it last year.. so its always been up in this part of the world !!
I see the old links broke in my past post. Here she is in all her glory sporting a new buff polish and wax last Saturday. Fairing well in CNY winters via Rust-Check applications, and being that is is my winter driver. Still limited use has kept my 2006 under 42,000 miles. Almost 4 years of ownership now and so far I wouldn't trade it for nutting!
Just bolts right up. Only thing you must do was trim a small notch on the grey plastic lip to get the bar to fit level. I did an arc no wider than an inch like a 1/2 circle to make it look more oem incase I ever wanted to remove the bar. You could just cut | | and bend each piece back. That was the extent of the modification, everything else fit just fine.
Plasti dip, 4 coats. Has held up surprisingly well for almost a year now.
If you don't like it, peel it off.
It's final look is matte black.
There's a glossifier that can be sprayed over it.
It can be purchased at any home improvement or hardware store, $6-8 a can, used 3 cans.
Just thought I would see how you all like my 9-7x. I love doing stuff other people haven't and standing out. Here is a list of everything I had done to it...
Outside:
Painted the stock rims matte black with yellow pin stripping
5% Tint all around with a 10" eye drop on the front
Painted the roof racks matte black
Had the rear signals painted with a new tint paint (don't remember what it's called)
Added Yellow "Gunshow" print to the rear windows on both sides. I am a huge fan of this print by Rob Dyrdek's clothing line Rogue Status.
Inside:
6" touchscreen pioneer deck
12" JL W7 enclosed in a custom fiberglass box in the rear drivers side
