    Excellent. Thats what I should have said. I think what I actually did on mine was wrap tape around the threads then measure to the center of the end. Because you're right, the threaded section's length can vary.

    That will work if the rod end length is exactly the same. Lay em on the ground next to each other and compare, say yep and go!

    I saw this the other night and was completely shocked. i have never seen this type of hood on a 04+. the only time i've ever seen this style is in the 97-03. it was a special edition because it had the spo grill and the spo spoiler. there is an se that is in my town but i have never seen this hood before. has anyone else seen one? i can tell you one thing is that i wanted it... BAD

    Yep that's the 04 special edition. GT's came with the multi-spoke chrome wheels from the 97-03 body style. GTP se's got that hood and wheels that look a lot like bonneville GXP wheels.

    And both models got the SPO package, grills spoiler and exhaust tips

    edit: that color blue was only available on the se's. The only other color I've seen was red, and that guy lives down the street from me and bought the car new in 04.

    Got gas, got some parts for a neighbors snowblower, and went through the $2 car wash, line was pretty long but moved fast. I'm gonna remove my semi-ghetto grille air blocks that I felt like adding for the really cold month of the winter. It's just clear plastic on the back side of the grilles. It's finally clean though

    Realized the front tires are noticeably lower on tread than the back ones. Time to rotate them, I guess.

    Also got the red 99 GT covered in tarps. Freaking snow coming this weekend. Repairs will begin next Monday most likely

    Everything turned out good also got the doorman trans pan installed. It'll be nice to have a drain plug in the trans pan now
