    so i guess i could start a build thread on my car. for starters it's a 2005 gtp with 50,000 miles on it. i bought it at the start of Feb. and i have added DNA drop springs and a Spectra air filter. next on my list is headers and pully then i will go from there.. on to the pics.
    when i 1st got the car


    after my new grilles i know the cars dirty

    then came DNA springs


    i have also painted the calipers red but no pics of that.
    if anyone out there wants to make me a sig with some of the pics that would be great..

    You are about a week late. Some guy had a couple of GXP spoilers on ebay for about $50 bucks. Looking good, keep up the good work.

    so i got a spoiler off ebay for $55 and its painted black so i wont have to have it painted and i took the car today to have the windows tinted and the guy that did it broke the plug off the back window for the antenna. i'm gonna call him tomorrow and get him to fix it or if its a easy fix then i will just do it myself. i also got some exh tips from advance that i am going to have put on when i get a chance.

    Thanks guys. I like the pin stripe so if I do take it off and I don't like it without it then I will go back with a silver one. Black looks so good on these cars but there something else to keep clean my brothers white one that's a dd don't look 1/2 as dirty after a week.
