Can't see much in the under-hood pics. Usually you can gauge things by whether the strut towers look closer or farther from the engine than what they should be (on that Trans Am I mentioned, the driver-side tower was touching the exhaust manifold!).

But, from the pics, the damage didn't look very intrusive.

Haha, my car is a rattletrap. Can't you just turn up the radio or get a louder exhaust? :P

I went to pick the car up.... When i plopped down in her i heard a horrible rattle.... I went and told the manager(being that no one there speaks english) and he said it will eventually stop... I love when people try to bull**** me and he is a friend of mine too. Well he just needed a little persuasion.. Guess what they are doing right now. TAKING IT APART AND DOING IT OVER!!! HAHA.. It will be ready monday mourning.

Never got the cam i told you about.. had to get an LT4 hot cam because it was towed to a dealer and The cam lobes were pretty much round. They gave me the hott cam kit.. Im going to be selling my 1.6 rockers and everything else that came with it when I get my new cam, the 227/233 cam i told you about. So many problems.... A week before that I thought my opti was bad and replaced it and then the cam lobes went. .. .I didint know that could even happen untill then,lol.. Now it was wrecked.. Cant wait till i get it back!!!!
