Bought a black door from the wrecking yard, stripped it and dropped it off to be painted.. ($150 for the door and $ 350 in paint work)
I got the shell back from the paint shop Friday, hung it yesterday and re-installed everything today.

What brand do u recommend ?
R1 Concepts...I just put the OEM style rotors (1999 Pontiac Grand Prix E-Line OE Replacement Brake Rotors) with these pads (1999 Pontiac Grand Prix Centric Premium Ceramic Pads). Put them on a week ago, and LOVE them. Total was under $200 with free shipping. Took almost almost a week to get here from CA, but I'm in OH. Probably get there a bit quicker for you...lol
Re: What did you do to your Car today?
Ask Billy aka 02GPinNY about the 3 yr old, 55K mile R1Concept rotors/pads on my car. He seemed impressed.
Never my car..
Put neighbor kids car back together
Did a LIM on Billy's
OMG, we did put the summer sneakers on my car..wow
Watched as Swiggles and Josh reinvented his turbo setup.
Helped (harassed) Erich during a column install on his latest.
Re: What did you do to your Car today?
do we ever get to hear if that other white regal went home with you for 800 or not Bill?
Re: What did you do to your Car today?
LOL..
It didn't go home that day. Owner didn't care for my offer, he countered the next morning with $900. By that point the rusty edges of bumper cover to fender etc and other little stuff had sunken in enough that....I don't want to deal with it.

bet that guys kicking himself in the ass right now for not selling at 800 lol. especially after you gave him a brief break down what you thought was wrong, as im sure he knew all that and more himself.....
Re: What did you do to your Car today?
Scott...he didn't know any of that himself. If he knew anything ....he would have put the trans dipstick into it's tube instead of housing it on the cowl.

Just take off the rest of the trim. Would look way cleaner. Although great job fixing it up!
Re: What did you do to your Car today?
then he's left with holes.. only way to ding guard remove properly is close those up.
Re: What did you do to your Car today?
Okay I realise he will have a few holes to take car of but thats not too hard to do. lol

Disagree. Without the trim it looks BLAH.
Re: What did you do to your Car today?
Looking good killerspeed101. It's a shame my chrome AE 077's started peeling since they are still a great looking wheel on these cars.
Re: What did you do to your Car today?
your car has the perfect stance on 077's
