Re: Scottydoggs regal GS 2.0
I seen on another thread you were looking at a monte carlo. Maybe a good time not to care about the bumper. Im particularly fond of the last gen of monte. Imo you could have the same car that looks better. Only thing is you mentioned pulling subframe with everything attached from the regal to the monte but the monte has the aluminum subframe. Its alot of work I guess for a few pounds unless your getting serious about track times.

Re: Scottydoggs regal GS 2.0
Blatant sorrybastardism. Seriously whoever did that probably was unaware that they had miscalculated because everybody drives oversized junk. Do Buicks even have a reflector on front? Anyway yep it's worth a small amount of legwork in case you could get paid somehow. It would have to be bent back, rattle canned and dismissed in my world. FWIW if you was to leave a dash cam running at night (doesn't seem to draw the battery down when I oops leave mine on), you'd have a tag number. Hope you end up with house and garage someday, SD.

Re: Scottydoggs regal GS 2.0
yeah its on the list of things down the road. its brakes were shot to hell, its a one owner 121.000 miles on it. aka a baby still, it dont leak oil or anything else and is so solid, not a single rattle.
seems the last owner was a pad slapper its whole life, all 4 rotors were beyond shot to hell.
only pic i took of the new stuff. went with R1's E line and scorched pads again. cant say how much i love these brakes. truck has dual piston calipers front and back, but you can use 07 fronts as a upgrade. figures il see what stock does, so far more then happy. stops real nice now, smooth too.

Re: Scottydoggs regal GS 2.0
im getting a billet grill set up, its cheap like 40 bucks, then im painting the chrome grill red to match the body, and i might just do both bumpers.
the fog lights are missing, got them on order already, super cheap too 30 shipped for the pair. i just need to get two speed nuts and 4 bolts to reinstall em, and fastenall has em in stock, win win.
also needs shocks pretty bad, so im getting bildtein's 5200 iirc just 300 bucks shipped.
and of course its gonna need a driver seat cover soon.
Re: Scottydoggs regal GS 2.0
Nice truck Scotty.
You have plenty of room in it for work stuffs and your big ol booty
Re: Scottydoggs regal GS 2.0

crazy thing it, ist not longer then the regal, might be a tad bit wider, but over all its the same foot print.
Re: Scottydoggs regal GS 2.0

Re: Scottydoggs regal GS 2.0
Nice Tahoe looks like a very clean ride.
Re: Scottydoggs regal GS 2.0
the dealer detailed the hell out of it, inside and out, im pretty sure a buffer was used, the paint is very smooth feeling. carpet and floor mats were spotless and looked new, before i started to drive it of course, got some salt stains on the one already.
it needs a d/s bottom seat cover, that pesky edge stitching is torn already. damn things are like 150 for a new leather cover too.
Re: Scottydoggs regal GS 2.0
I like this thing. Way nicer than mine lol, but mine has twice the mileage. I don't seem to have any pics of it. Mines a 2000. I'd like to get rid of it and get a nicer 03+with the refined dash so I can do a double din and a bunch of other stuff. And maybe it won't be so rattly like mine haha
Re: Scottydoggs regal GS 2.0
i took that vid today lol
this is just about the worst road i got left, they paved the one thats worse last month.
mostly my keys the bags in the back seat from food shopping, and the tires hitting these monster bumps, im aiming for stuff to hit lol

I think it's the 5100's you're after. That's what I was looking at for mine.
Re: Scottydoggs regal GS 2.0
Yea, well mine wouldn't even start today haha. So no vid from me. I think one of the cells is dead in the battery. I brought it inside so it's not in the cold to charge it and one of the cells is frosty after being on the charger 2 hours inside. I think the battery is bad
