Maybe some of us just want something a little more unusual and different... Didn't you sell your Kappa?

I just wanted something different considering the Solstice crowd has the F430 bumper option.

Helios makes an excellent point. I'd consider a facelift for my Sky so long as its not over the top cheesy. The solstice F430 facelift is a tasteful example of what such a mod could do for our Sky's.

I know DeepBlue, I just wanted to remind GJ that he's no longer a Kappa owner

I love the SKYs look but something a little different would be like the face lifted car we should have gotten last year or this year, had GM not killed the Kappa and Saturn.

CD doesn't do any good reminding him he still has to put in his two cents.  I personally think a less angular and curvier front end would look a lot better, new now if only I could find an example.......

I always like the Beira front end.


But this is more like what I was thinking just ditch the stupid plane in the upper grill:


Or even just a front grill like this would do for now:
