At least mine sits inside the garage on jack stands so I don't have to work on it outside. The mirrors would get more light under there. Lol

Great job on the car, it looks fantastic!!

NOT ALL GN's had the "rock guard". I know that because my best friend bought one new without it!!

When I ordered mine there was not a rock guard or no rock guard option, it just came with it.

Maybe it was different in '87 or it was a dealer repaint and they just left it off??
It seems there were a lot of oddities back in the day. My GN came with a black metallic deck lid filler (between the deck lid and rear window). Does that mean I would lose points for being too flashy? Lol

did the 86's not have body moldings ?

The body mouldings were optional, I ordered mine without.
I believe the '87's were the same.

good to know ill have to look into rpo code see if mine is suppose to have them
thought that might have been the 2 points because it looks perfect
I know he said bc paint was too smooth unreal
