    Hey everyone. Im new to the forum (kinda) but i've got a 1997 Grand Prix GT. Its just a stocker for now... This spring i've got some ideas to do to it. But still thinking about just buying a GTP. Then modding that but i dont know yet.

    About a couple of weeks ago, some kids decided walk down my street and spray paint a straight line down the side of my car...

    Here are some of the pictures i got of it... (crappy iphone camera sorry)





    Don't have a picture of the whole side. But it ran all the way down the side...

    Ill have more pictures probably in a month or so. When i get it back from getting repainted.
    Sorry if they are a bit big, just didn't want to resize then. :\

    That's some bad luck you got there.

    As for a GT or a GTP, if your GT is clean you should just stick with that. Neither one seems to really be any better or worse for what 99% of people will be doing with these cars when it comes to mods.

    Welcome to the forums!

    This weekend i was able to use my garage to try to get the spray paint off, and thanks to Kguffey84 i got almost all of it out! Theres still little spots of it left but really interested in putting anymore time in trying to get all of it off. Im gonna take some pics probably next weekend to give you guys an idea of what the whole car looks like. Its not the best but not the worst.
