    '02 GT loaded

    Bought her July 29th with 77k miles for $4,200










    I was so excited that I started buying parts a week before I bought her.

    Just cosmetic mods for now,

    TINT 5% rear 35% front
    CCG grills
    CCG 'PONTIAC' inlays
    CCG Arrowhead overlay
    GTO Headlight covers
    VHT Nightshaded tail lights
    AVS Window visors
    K&N drop in air filter


    What should be next?

    Looking good! I like it!

    Next mod, looks like you're into appearance, so I'd say it needs some wheels.

    inspect suspension.

    Look into replacing a fair amount of it.

    Suspension+wheels.

    The most expensive appearance mods, but help differentiate it the most

    I know my front strut mounts have a little surface rust on them, are GPs known to have suspension problems or something? what else is to be expected?

    Yours is an 02...

    On my 02, I found the following were in need of attention:

    Sway bars.

    Sway bar links.

    LCA's.

    Struts.

    Springs.

    Tie rod ends.

    Just bought it July 29th so that might be why. You'd see me on/around Alpine more than anything. Couldn't find any other place to take pics lol

    I want to know who drives the black 4 door GT that's always parked at Walmart. They have an SD spoiler and I want it lol

    Looks very nice and it has low miles.

    As far as next mod(s) I say do: springs and wheels but do preventive maintenance before modding.

    Also,the headlight covers are so 90s and the wheels on craigslist look decent.

    Thanks man, if we get more MI members involved, maybe we could do a mini-meet.

    Your buddy Sam, Is he selling that spoiler on ClubGP?

    I saw the same one there, but if not, you should ask him if he's selling it lol I thought about leaving a sticky note on his window with my number asking if he'd sell it... But I thought that might be a little.. uh... creeper-ish..

    Hmmm I'm not sure. I'll have to ask him he's one of those kind of guys that anything is for sale for the right price. But last I knew he was in love with that wing. But I'll ask lol. But yeah it would be legit to have a meet. I know a lot of prixs around here. They would be down for it.

    Yeah let me know about the spoiler, a MI meet would be sick. I'm just trying to think of where we could go.
