My White 2000 GT

08-26-2005, 06:25 PM

Here are pics of my 2000 Grand Am GT. I'm new to the whole mod scene, so I'm starting with simple things. Here is the list so far.

Reflective Black Vinyl Overlays:
Reflective Concepts: Grand Am GT and Pontiac overlays
GrafxWerx: Ram Air V6, Side Molding, Bumper Indentations, Pontiac symbol (Border reflective, center non-reflective), Wheel spokes

Other Vinyl:
GrafxWerx: Grand Am GT Brake Light cover (Black)

Other Mods:
Auto Ventshade: Window Visors, Sunroof wind deflector
Kleen Wheels: Black brake dust shields

Tires:
Michelin Pilot Sport A/S

Future Plans:
Black headlights (awaiting installation)
SC/T or SD hood
SC/T Body kit
Window tint

Before anyone says it, I'm not lowering it! I'm not a fan of lowering. Perhaps with air, I might. I don't enjoy scraping at all and in this area, it happens enough already.

Here are some day and night pics.

A couple night time and a couple daytime without flash. The ones in the initial post used the flash.

Nice ride. Looks great, keep up the good work.

Post pics when you get the black headlights installed. Curious to see what they look like on a white car. Might have to invest in some.

Look at the thread about the black headlights. On page 11 or so, NorKoastal has pics of his white car with the black headlights. They look great.

Thanks. Actually, the reflective overlays are very subtle. During the day, unless you're in the direct path of the sunlight, you wouldn't notice them at all. At night, you only see them if your headlights (or someone in your same line of sight does). They reflect light back at 180 degrees with very little variance.

wow nice looking. yea about the SD hood we are still trying to get a group buy for it.

08-28-2005, 09:32 PM

I installed the new headlights. Here are some pics.

08-28-2005, 09:34 PM

more headlight pics

08-28-2005, 09:35 PM

just a couple more

SikMindz · 08-28-2005, 09:35 PM

I dont think your headlights are re-installed correctly. They should NOT be sitting that far in. The rubber molding should stick out further or sit flush with the fender.

Might want to check on that.

08-28-2005, 09:38 PM

I"m pretty sure they are installed correctly, but they are quite possibly not aimed correctly. Thanks. I'll check on it or have someone a bit more knowledgeable aim them.

Bouchie11982 · 08-29-2005, 05:35 AM

yea thats how my driver side healight looks, and it definatey off. i can tell at night

poor birdies up in the trees, im waking them up with my headlight

08-29-2005, 10:35 AM

Good call on the headlight, Sik. Despite my best attempt to get everything locked in place, I took it in to get the lights aimed since I didn't have it done well and they found that the one wasn't quite seated properly. I'll take pics this evening and update them here. I also won't be waking up any more little birdies or inciting road rage from blinding oncoming traffic.

Ajaxus · 08-29-2005, 01:10 PM

hehe, looks nice. im guessing that blue effect in some pictures is due to the reflection of the bulb's color. very nice. makes me salivate as i await the arrival of my lights.

08-29-2005, 01:17 PM

The blue effect is from the Silverstar 3157 signals. They look blue but shine amber. It kinda goes against my B/W theme. I may eventually swap them out with chrome ones, but I think it looks kinda cool for my B/W Grand Am to have blue eyes!

Graxall · 08-29-2005, 02:00 PM

im loving how the headlights look on a white car but for 200+ im not sure if its worth it...ill prolly wait a while till they die down or pfyc buys/makes them or something of that nature
