Here's a link .. easier! 5 pics. Let me know what you think!

MY CAR

RAZE · 06-08-2003, 05:21 PM

looks sharp. By looking at your pics, I noticed for the first time that the side rockers look like a backward version of the sc/t rockers. by that, I mean the sides flare out in the front for the AAS and the sides flare out in the back for the sc/t.

Looks good... Could someone photoshop some rims on that ride?

Goober · 06-08-2003, 06:37 PM

Is it just me or does that paint not match?

it's just you

Goober · 06-08-2003, 06:48 PM

also it looks like the ends of some of the parts dont curve with the car... they just go straight

lucky13rme · 06-08-2003, 06:50 PM

Looks good, it'll definately look better with some bigger rims though.

I see it too, but were looking to hard!

. I paint for a living, so I notice these things. otherwise, I'm sure It's hardly noticable unless you stare at it trying to see it.

Goober · 06-08-2003, 06:56 PM

I don't paint for a living, but im a perfectionist.... i notice everything wrong and it gets on most peoples nerves...

babyklr · 06-08-2003, 07:07 PM

The paint matches to the eye pretty good. It's just reflecting alitting different in the photo is all

Plus it's fresh so there's no wax on it yet.

I do need some rims but that won't be in the budget for a long time

Even if i can find some used ones. Next I think I'll do the windows.

SilverEcstasy · 06-08-2003, 10:08 PM

Yeah some of the pieces don't look too comfortable on the car. What's that black line on the car btw? The kit looks alright, I can't seem to like it whatsoever, but glad you are happy with it!

GrandAmChick · 06-09-2003, 12:26 AM

I'm not a big fan of the kit, but looks good. I agree, def. tint those windows. Rims, drop, yeah of course when u get the $$.

In the meantime, since u don't have stock spoiler, I'd look into getting something for back there, like Razzi maybe, n u won't even have to worry about filling the stock holes n repainting the trunk. It'd kinda balance the whole kit out.

safemode · 06-09-2003, 04:43 AM

the paint on the kit is not the same color as the car, it's brighter. The kit has the distinct look of being plastic. It looks like it wasn't painted, but instead is just shiny white plastic.

Not trying to knit pick but it's not just an optical illusion in the photo or something only artists would notice. I think if the pinstripe continued into the front it would help make it look more like a part of the car ... but it may be that it's just too big to pull it off.
It almost works ... was it made for a different year or model grand am? And sedans dont really look good with rear spoilers, I wouldn't recommend getting it. New wheels would make a world of difference though

babyklr · 06-09-2003, 12:25 PM

After i tint the windows, I need to get a second car! hehe Don't want to drive this one in the winter now, plus i can save up over the winter to do more with it next year. Definatly needs rims, and I plan to get the razzi wing eventually.

alexwbush · 06-10-2003, 05:13 PM

the kit is definately different, not as bad as i thought it would look. good work... keep it up

06-10-2003, 06:53 PM

06-10-2003, 07:55 PM
