your car looks great Terese!!!!

[Rich]

the gauges look REALLY nice being there.

[boost21]

wow those gauges are in there very clean

[iceman]

Gauges look cool there.. whatd you guys do just extend the vacuum and electrical lines?

[RAZE]

Do you plan on doing anything with the controls? It looks like you put a lot of effort intto making the interior nice, and to just shove the controls in the glovebox is somewhat defeating the purpose of all your hard work.

[boost21]

im sure she will eventually do somethining with that

[magyver]

very sexy, i like the one off $hit... mad mad props... you need a monitor molded in your dash, help the hideiousness of the ets and hazz switches go away.. and your deck is a fold out so you could still see it... its realy not that hard or expensive to do (just the screen) and it seems like you got peeps in high places...

anyways, sexy, very sexy...

First of all.... Thanks again everyone

Alright....when I first took a look at my controls, i was like, oh shit. This is gonna be a cinch! They are just wires, we can just extend em and move em. *grabs cutters *snip* tisssssss* Yeah.....vacuum lines Needless to say my b/f and myself with our brillant minds came up with a solution to my stupidity. Some clear garden hose (about 1/4" i believe or so), electrical tape, and heat shrink tubing Thank the friggin' lord it all worked out

And yeah....I'm still trying to figure out a way to mount those controls in the glove box. They fit in their perfectly, but I don't want to have to cut off those two lil' side brackets where they screwed into the front panel where they used to be (incase i sell the car and need to move them) It's just a matter of making something or riggin' something up to get them in their nicely. But yeah...i'm workin on it!!!!!

and magyver. I ain't got a single sole no where I wish I did. Everything done was by me, the b/f, and a lil' helping hand from some friends. But everything on my car I've had hands on with. Unless absolutely necessary, I will not let someone just take over a project. I've gotta help some way or another.

Again, I'm just thoroughly impressed by this car...it may be my favorite GA out there...and to see a girl so into her car and doing things herself is awesome. Congrats again, looks great.

[shogun99]

ok i will admit......now THAT looks cool. Very clean looking and very nice!
Interior is my thing so when you posted pics of that, thats when you get me props.



ps. I have that same deck......i love it

*blushes* oh man, you guys are killin' me here with the compliments I seriously never expected this kind of response. I'll get more pics of the interior, and just all around pictures of my car. Weather hasn't been the greatest yet to do so

I appreciate the props to me doing the work. My father owned his own shop for almost 30years so it's been in my blood since the day I was born

Now I have to think of something just as good to do next! And I think I might have a few ideas

what makes me think its a fad? cause lowering economy compact cars with air bags is fairly new to the car scene as a whole....

and i wasnt worried about the money spent, im just saying i can ask a question if i want to, you dont have to answer it or try to rationalize it...

and the first line of text im so getting away with cause its a super troopers quote...

Great looking girl. Great looking car. What could be better? Mr. Eh not saying anything for a few moments! Just kidding. I'm sure I'm going to hear it now. Seriously, great body. I'm talking about the car. Air suspension is fun. It's not a waste of money and it's certainly unique on Grand Ams.

this argument is getting old. since when do you have to have stuff done to your car to have an opinion? and mr eh has one of the quickest 2.4's on here. give it a rest bud.

[magyver]

^ since modded cars is what keeps this site together... if everyone was stock, WTF would we be talking about? and no mods most likely means no experience. so for bashing someone for them putting time and money into there car is a punk a$$ move... especialy when done tastefully...

and i think if you havent done it, maybe you shouldnt be bashin it when your expericne level is -... but thas me.. seems like a lack of a life to me, have a stock car and just post derogatory remarks EVERY SINGLE F'n TIME! oh, and who TF cares how fast his stock car is? if your a fast person, you dont own a GA.. sorry bro, your points have no pot to pi$$ in or window to throw it out of..

[Rich]

yeah modded cars do keep this site together. also, i dont think he was bashing the work she put into it. he was just saying he didnt like it (just with more words). im pretty sure youve called some of the extremedimensions kits really ugly or some of the aftermarket tails ugly. so because you dont have the kit/tails or put a body kit on your car means you cant have an opinion on it? his car isnt stock he just doesnt have any big apperance mods. its all engine work. but anyway, i know eh can stand up for himself and i have no beef with you. its just that everyone always brings that up when he says something and it struck a nerve.

I think the car looks great ! I know Air-ride can be a pain in the a$$ been there though , im lovin where u put the gauges deff different and a good idea to steal . I give u mad props dont worry bout the haters they just dont have the extra money to spare like we do....!!

Modded cars do keep this site together but it just gets annoying when youi post the pics up and everyone hates even though it does look bad a$$. I wont even post pics anymore and my car is finnaly finished I would love to but ill get nothing but the haters .I cant waitto see what they say when they find out that I have 18 tv's, 2005 lamroghini white paintjob with a blue pearl ....... I dont know i just hate haters they should have a seperate forum
