Tinted windows Color match spoiler as seen here: http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/BUICK-RIVIERA-CUSTOM-STYLE-SPOILER-1996-2002_W0QQcmdZViewItemQQcategoryZ33638QQihZ002QQitemZ120079827490QQrdZ1QQsspagenameZWD1V. I think I can get it up to around 260 HP without any major work. | |

| Looks good.
260 HP sounds good, you'll have to let us know when you get it done how it does. I want to try some mods on my '95 too, I'll just have to make the time to get it done. | |

| I love the color. I don't see it much. Looks like we will be doing most of the same projects. I dig the wing. | |

| Not really a downside, but coolant temp will decrease a few degrees, imo. For the $$$ I wouldn't do this mod unless you do alt/AC/PS as well. That 3 extra HP is probably an "at best" scenario, and likely peaks in the higher RPMs. _________________ '05 GTO 6.0L • 6-spd • 95k miles • 0-60: 4.8s • 16.9 avg MPG • Nelson Ledges Lap: 1:26'95 Celica GT 2.2L • 5-spd • 165k miles • 0-60: yes'98 SC Riviera • 281k miles • 298 HP/370 TQ • 0-60: 5.79s • ET: 13.97 @ 99.28 • 4087 lb • 20.1 avg MPG • Nelson Ledges Lap: 1:30 3.4" pulley • AL104 plugs • 180º t-stat • FWI w/K&N • 1.9:1 rockers • OR pushrods • LS6 valve springs • SLP headers • ZZP fuel rails KYB GR2 struts • MaxAir shocks • Addco sway bars • UMI bushings • GM STB • Enkei 18" EV5s w/ Dunlop DZ101s • F-body calipers EBC bluestuff/Hawk HP plus • SS lines • Brembo slotted discs • DHP tuned • Aeroforce • Hidden Hitch^^^ SOLD ^^^ '70 Ninety-Eight Holiday Coupe 455cid • 116k miles^^^ SOLD ^^^ | |
