For me wrapping it was going to be atleast 250 dollars. For a shop to paint it matte black was 100 so for me painting it was the best option. if you dont like it spend 100 and paint it your original colorQuote:

I think I've done almost every small modification that can be done to a GTP, so, it's time to slowly move to the big stuff.
Her name is Jenny.

This past month has been rough for this car. But it's only good things from here on.
I'm thinking a set of 9-5 rockers and a Highflow-Cat./SD Headers are the next mods. But a tune is in the very near future.
And considering she's about half way through her life with a little over 96000 on the odo. I think so far so good. :th_winking:
Mods. list:
Home dept H.A.I. with ebay AEM filter.
180*tstat.
Crossed-Drilled and Slotted Rotors w/ Ceramic pads.
GMPP front sway bar.
Flipped Dog Bones

jerz, you're hurting yourself with that 180 thermostat and no other mods. just throwing that out there
Never seen a 4th gen 'bird with IROC wheels, I likeQuote:

The Iroc wheels were the first thing I noticed in that pic. I'm willing to bet the rears probably look goofy though. The offset probably has them sticking out past the fenders
Took a few pics earlier with my cell phone...

when an engine runs cooler, not all the fuel gets burnt off, leading to heavy carbon deposits and poor fuel milage. the reason for running a lower thermostat is to reduce knock, which is much more prevalent with pulley drops. nothing catastrophic, but nothing gained.
edit: for reference, the ideal temp for an engine to run is between 200-210 give or take a few degrees.

Wow, some great looking cars on here!!
well coolant wise sure, oil will be a little higher.
combustion temps are even higher yet again.

Only time it looked goofy is when he had the old tires on and they stuck out on the front. The newer narrower ones fit nicelyQuote:
