IMO your car looks nice enough to forget about the black head lights, taillights and body kit and do the intake and exhaust. but that's what I would do.

yeah well exaust is my next to do. the black head lights basicly look the same as stock ones but with out the nasty orange reflectors.as u can see im going for the black/white theme.i was thinking either body kit or GT front/rear bumpers. i just got my rims 3 days ago been driving with lowering springs and stock wheels for 2 years. now i have my rims i love the look!! any other suggestions are welcome. thx

Looks pretty good. My suggestions: paint your mirrors white, get the black headlights, exhaust, tint the tails. I dont think theres a good body kit for the grand am (exept sct for the gt). Maybe start with gt bumpers and then think about that kit?

I wanted to paint my mirrior's white but when i asked the body shop guy he said they would get lots of rock chips. so im not sure if i want to do it...anyone with their side mirrors painted leave me some feedback thanks. i noticed lots of people dont like altezzas here. i only like them on black or white vehicles.if i was to get them id get the black ones. but i remember reading something on here awhile back about some people tinting their taillights????

Ever thought about just clearing your tail lights? Dunno how that would look on white, But I like it on my silver GA.

onesexyga nailed it.
Forget about the body kit crap and definitely tint the tails. With the theme youre going for, that would be perf. The black headlights look good on white, the clear reflector makes the lights contrast nicely with the white body. PLEASE GOD do not clear your tails... and Coupe, cardomain sucks. |

the car looks good. those rims remind me of mine. i think that your car would look good with simple things...not too overdone.with no ribs you can pull off the andys fenders (the ones i have) but they fit so bad, i dont recommend them to anyone.
if you are willing to go through the trouble of installing them, then they would look really good on your car. other than that...i agree with everyone else.

Looks good. The second picture would look even better with the mustang chopped out of it.

I don't think he can clear his tails, can he? They're SEs. I kind of think the black e-bay headlights would look good, too. I'd probably go for the performance first, but that's just me. Definitely new tails and headlights, especially if your headlights are getting nasty like mine are. I'd also paint the mirrors. The only thing that gets on mine are bugs, I haven't noticed any rock chips on any of my friends' painted mirrors (mine aren't painted yet).

Replace your stock SE tails with stock GT tails. Take off the window rain trim (whatever it's called), and add on some white turn signal overlays and STOP. Buying a CAI is waste. If you want a bodykit, replace the stock SE parts with a GT.
Your car looks very tastefully done so far, please don't ruin it.

Can't clear SE tails, correct. Still don't understand why more people don't tint their tails.... prolly my favorite mod to my car for how cheap and easy it is.
