looks well done, I was withen ten minutes of getting a 98 BAB coupe before I got my lazer red, loved the car and the low miles the car had, but it had been hit worse than the guy had told me and wouldn't budge on price.....everytime I see a BAB I think of what could have been lol....great looking car!

Looks great, of course I am a little partial to BAB ;-):rockon:

I also need to get my front license plate holes filled and the front facia repainted. How much did that run you if you don't mind me asking? Did they fill and paint the holes while the bumper cover was on the car, or did they remove it? I am torn between filling and repainting mine, to just buying a new front facia and having it painted. Let me know what you think, and again, awesome BAB coupe!

Gorgeous car. I've always had a thing for a clean BAB car. Probably the only color I'd trade straight up for without a second thought.

Did they fill and paint the holes while the bumper cover was on the car, or did they remove it? I am torn between filling and repainting mine, to just buying a new front facia and having it painted.

I had it done on my car years ago. They pulled the fascia, filled the holes, and painted it. I want to say it cost me somewhere around $250 to $300 to have done.

Looks great, post more pics.

One thing I would suggest is a Kaenen S281 wing. Also, are you sure the springs are sportlines? Car doesn't look as slammed as others I've seen running sportlines. Could be just the pics though. Beautiful ride.

appreciate the kind words! I believe it ran ~$350 for removal, fill, sand, and repaint (entire facia).

Been contemplating the s281 for awhile now. I previously owned a 98 GT and ran it wingless. Smooth look but it eliminated some of the sporty factor. I'll probably wait to make a real decision on the wing until I see one in person. I have't yet.

100% sportlines. Not happy with the drop either. I'm thinking about cutting some steel from the fronts and removing the isolators in the back. Unless someone knows how to cut the back springs and still have them fit in their designated placements. I know the springs are progressive but, I dont' care. It won't make that big of a difference in ride quality for me. I like it when it feels like i'm driving a race car not a luxury car. Plus it only sees about a 1000 miles per year.
