PontiacGT2K · 02-09-2004, 07:19 AM

Looks like someone beat Dr. Kyle to the punch.

tonmarchelli · 02-09-2004, 09:42 AM

yeah, thats what i was thinking. but, i wouldnt buy it unless it also had the lower certer console also. it wouldnt match.

cavingman · 02-09-2004, 09:51 AM

holy crap i want that
thing is, the trim piece changed through the years, so its either 99-01 (maybe 02? not sure) or 02-03. someone needs to find out

PontiacGT2K · 02-09-2004, 09:53 AM

The size of the opening tells me it's '02+

cavingman · 02-09-2004, 09:54 AM

good

Kdawg207 · 02-09-2004, 09:55 AM

one thing i notice....he is from a vinyl/graphics place....are we sure this is a replacement piece or just an overlayed piece

PontiacGT2K · 02-09-2004, 10:03 AM

It seems as though the CF goes through both sides....so I'm guessing it's not just an overlay.

EBlend · 02-09-2004, 10:04 AM

probably overlayed peice, but is it overlayed with real carbon fiber or is it overlayed with vylin look alike

cavingman · 02-09-2004, 10:10 AM

it may be like the one we saw at gap at milan. plastic with cf printed onto it.

Vintalage · 02-09-2004, 10:17 AM

I better grab this before someone here does. LOL

It would definately work with my car. The Dash trim is for '01+ GAs.

Vintalage · 02-09-2004, 10:18 AM

Looks pretty good.

Don't tell me PACE is bidding for it!!!???

In the description, it says to visit their website: www.ultra-graphics.net

They redo parts of your interior pieces with I guess whatever.

Kdawg207 · 02-09-2004, 10:27 AM

Bingo.... http://www.ultra-graphics.net/WaterTransferPrinting.htm

Check out the chroming process...pretty cool
http://www.ultra-graphics.net/UltraGraphicsChroming.htm

Vintalage · 02-09-2004, 10:32 AM

If they are pretty good, I would send my trim piece into them. I want a 2 tone effect. The first surronding of the trim would be carbon fiber with the second part being silver. It would look sweet!!!

mr_eh · 02-09-2004, 10:38 AM

ok i would send them an email but i cant (long story)

email them saying http://grandamgt.com bleh bleh, core chargers for trim we send em, blah blah, make it work.. .

You'd wrap your cek in CF if you could. I got an idea, wrap some $100 billz in CF.

So is it a stock piece overlaid with vinal, overlaid with real carbon fiber, or a full carbon fiber replacement?

Nah you gotta read how they do it.. somehow they imprint CF on the plastic.

I'd guess that's a printed stock piece since you can see the little stickers on the back there, they look like things that were on the replacement pieces I got

PACE · 02-09-2004, 11:17 AM

Oh its that water imprint process described on their stie? Cool. I wonder what the reserve is.....

Anyone feel free to bid like $200 to see what the reserve is and then retract your bid......<---great way to see what reserve people have on stuff

tonmarchelli · 02-09-2004, 11:26 AM

holy crap, that GA in the picture has the shiftknob i am going to buy, what do you guys think, black or silver is best for our car? opinions?

SlammedGT · 02-09-2004, 12:06 PM

hmmm i wonder if you were to take apart a set of altezzas, send them to him , if they would make them into the carbon fiber look

Vintalage · 02-09-2004, 12:38 PM

That autocross GA's interior is dusty.

I want a mix of Carbon fiber/Silver or Carbon fiber/Blue. I have a blue theme I plan to execute in the coming months with the LEDs. Don't know if I should stick with blue, or go with silver for some of the interior pieces.

tetrasion · 02-10-2004, 08:12 AM

mmmm...chrome car

yoda · 02-10-2004, 05:54 PM

I bought a part from (radio bezel like on e bay) them last year. It looks just like carbon fiber, but it is a factory part with the pattern added to it. I tried a decal kit first, But it look like s_ _ _ . Since then I had them do the console and the gauge bezel. Looks cool!

mr_eh · 02-10-2004, 06:03 PM

how much they charge you?

yoda · 02-10-2004, 06:13 PM

Ive got about $200.00 in the whole deal. They did some freebies for me since I told my friend about it and he had the fuel door and the tail lamps done on his Civic. They also "chromed" hiis factory rims. They look good!

Ant · 02-10-2004, 06:36 PM

ya know....I wish someone would buy stock dash parts, paint them, and then sell them. I'd pay a good $50 for a painted center console...

cavingman · 02-10-2004, 07:17 PM

yoda how much they charge ya?

cavingman · 02-10-2004, 07:56 PM

i just want it for the look

mr_eh · 02-10-2004, 08:00 PM

im not knocking it, it looks fantastic, i'd do it if it wasn't $...

black gets the same effect for me

Nice piece! I'm sure I'm not alone when saying that there's a genuine interest for this item in the Grand Am community. You have the item labeled as a 99+ piece, however judging by the pictures this appears to be a double din opening. If this is true, it would make it a direct fit for only the 01+ model Grand Am(s). With minor modifications the 99-00 Grand Am owners could use this as well. Is the there a 1 1/2 version of this same item for the 99-00 Grand Am(s)? If not would it be considered? If so, potential buyer buyers could be found at www.grandamgt.com and
also at www.gaownersclub.com. Would group buys be considered? Weanxiously await a reply.

GTManiac · 02-10-2004, 08:15 PM

I, TOO sent an email and got a response. This is it.

Hi Jeff, if you wanted to send us your pieces we would have them back
to you
in 4 days. The cost would depend on exactly how many pieces you ended
up
doing. But I will give you an example: if you did the dash piece that
goes
around your steering column and radio the price would be $95.00. If
you did
the 4 pieces on the door panels (switch pates and handle pulls) the
cost
would be $120.00. The cost goes down for the more pieces you do at one
time.
Thank You. Steve. 1-315- 479-7305. EST

It looks as though they would prolly be interested in a group buy sort of thing by when they said the more that is done the cheaper it would be. Someone should hook this up. I merely asked him as I was interested in the services they provided.

Irate · 02-10-2004, 08:28 PM

I'd put that in my car... looks pretty good from the pics, though I'd like a bunch of more close-ups to check the weave.

Now all they have to do in addition is the guage pod trim piece!
