Pics of Both Our Cars

mzrmatt · 12-15-2004, 06:02 PM

Finally got around to taking pictures of my girlfriend (angelluv98) and my car together. Not the greatest pics but here they are anyway.

Her's is a 98 SE and mine is a 2000 SE.

Here are the pics.

What do you have for springs in the white one?

AznGA · 12-15-2004, 06:47 PM

Your car is good enough now. You need to start modding your girl's.
Dropped SE with 15" stock rims. That looks good. Smaller rims make the wheelgaps look smaller.

mzrmatt · 12-15-2004, 06:59 PM

I have springtech springs, it actually dropped much more than I thought it would. But I love it.

And yes I do need to start modding hers, I bought her blazertech 3200's for Christmas and will be installing them soon. She has big plans for her car though, full A E D kit, A E D hood, custom paint, 18" Motegi MR7s etc.

She just has to get the money, but we have other plans right now so both of our modding has been put on hold.

How do you think 18" chrome centerline RPM's would look on my car?

They are the same ones that iceman had on his last.

Oh nooos the A word. Seeing how your car is that low, you migh get some rubbing from 18s and bumps on the road....I think 17s would be enough with that drop.

nice pics!!!! always good when a couple can mod their cars together

SC/TGrandAm · 12-16-2004, 09:00 AM

What kind of drop do you have? My car sits about that low if not a little lower and on 18's with no problems here.

Our cars are the reason that we met to begin with. I was the leader of a car club that Matt ended up finding in the DFW and joining. After a couple meets... well... the rest is history

I have springtech springs and monroe sensatrac struts.

the drop at first was pretty low. It has been about 6 months and i didn't think it was ever going to stop settling. It seemed that every time i saw my car it was lower.

awww *tear drops from eye*

2002GT · 12-16-2004, 11:44 AM

that hood looks great on your car... i havent seen too many SE's with an SC/T hood, if any!

MonoChrome83 · 12-16-2004, 12:59 PM

So that's what an SE looks like with the SC/T hood, thanks for posting the pics.

You'll see my SE with the hood soon enough.

I have the hood from PFYC not the GM SC/T, I like it better I think.

And the struts have been fine, no problems at all. The ride isn't bad at all either.

DrFabulous · 12-16-2004, 05:15 PM

Cool. Thanks, I think I just decided what kind I'm buying when I get springs. SE's dropped with 15's rock

Oh... have to say, your GA is very nice.... something about the white, the hood, the drop... it's all done nicely, and it all goes together well, and is still different then most. Nice work.

do you scrape your car on the ground a lot sitting that low?

Not if I am careful.

Usually only on big dips, steep inclines, or tall speed bumps. Other than that I don't have any problems. And if I do scrape, it is just the black plastic piece under the front fascia or the exhaust in the back.
