Re: tow-mater the 2nd ?? good for a laugh or six

How come no one has mentioned the ground effects kit? That looks top notch. The cavalier trunk lid spoiler mounted backwards above the windshield is a close second. It looks like some got bit by the mod bug and became very sick. How much for the speakers system? It looks like someone spent a lot of time engineering that to fit. Thanks for a good laugh.
