thats a good looking car.well done except for the wipers. not a big fan of color matching windshiledwipers.

Torrentman · 02-21-2007, 11:18 PM

wow that looks really tight! I love it. Great looking car.... although probably would look better with out the graphics stuff... but still really cool

I can't believe you drive that in the winter, after all that hard work...

Tails do look better..still wish there was a lense on them though.

Edit: Did you get those graphics before or after the kit?

Exodus · 02-22-2007, 09:06 AM

Better than b4 but not really into the aftermarket look of tails. I think the stock tails are the best looking. Like I said b4 other than the grafix, your cars noice.

Yeah I had the graphics on before the kit.

I love the tails, but I like the lens on better IMO.

I don't think they come with lenses.

AaronGTR · 02-22-2007, 12:00 PM

Nope, they don't come with lenses. I mentioned that in his other thread.

They certainly would look better with them. Looks better with the gap fixed though, good work. And looks nice with the new headlights too. I think I would've gone with the chrome ones over the black housings on a red car, but to each his own. Still looks better than stock.

jditch02GT · 02-22-2007, 12:17 PM

The *** tails do come with the lens. I left them off so you can see the shape of the tails.

caraudiodave · 02-22-2007, 12:35 PM

when i got mine they did, but i heard that they dont anymore. i know that the older gens tails dont for sure.

my problem with using the lenses i that when i did, people thought i just modified my stock tails, but with the lenses off, they looked custom.

oh, and your car looks nice. the clear LED things in back give it a nice custom look. thats not an option now with the tails, is it? if they were smart theyd offer those as up "upgrade" option.

And not everyone can afford to drop $6000 on after market goodies... but those who do generally would have enough more to buy a $1000 beater, that was my point.

$1000 beaters are usually big mistakes... But I get what your saying.

GrandAmGT1996 · 02-22-2007, 02:36 PM

Glad to see someone took their

The tails look much better now without the gap, and and the headlights look good...as they would on any GA. Lose the graphics and you will have a really nice car.

Exactly. I bought a $4000 beater for a daily driver. Needed a bunch of stuff fixed on it and the trans went after a year so it's turned into an $8000 beater. It drives nice and it's dependable now, but it's still an expensive second car. You have extra insurance too. Luckily mine was only $60 more to have basic on the GP as daily driver and keep collision on the GA as a second car.

6000 in mods? WHat all does he have done besides the exterior mods??

GrandAmGT1996 · 02-24-2007, 11:22 AM

Well he has probably close to 4,000 just in extrerior mods. I think Joe was just using that number as an example...if you can afford so much money in mods, you should be able to afford a little beater.
