Now I gotta make that back end drop a bit....then headlights, taillights, and maybe a few little touches

Any recommendations?

i am probably going to go with smoked led tails, since my passenger side is leaking. going to retro the headlights to projectors, once the silverstars burn out. prob gonna inlay the rear bumper, thinking maybe gold to match the black and gold theme going on. gonna black the pontiac in the front plate filler, and have to do something with the exhaust tips, since they are a little crooked. was thinking of finding some slp loudmouth tips

V6 Stangbanger wheels, yaaaaaaaaaaaaaaay.

i wish it was a gtp......will do a top swap eventually, but it is too expensive to drive my truck the long summer trips we have been doing for now. As for the wheels, I only paid $125 for the wheels, with great tires on them. For the springs, i just bought a set of AG racing off ebay(AG RACING 97-06 PONTIAC GRAND PRIX W BODY LOWERING COIL SPRINGS SET 213 | eBay) for $69.99 for now, Until i get more stuff later on to build a proper kit. That kit is actually not bad, just a little soft for my personal liking, but they are progressive rate, so it works ok for short term. They definitely do not drop the back 1.8" like it says though. It is really almost level. I put about 350 miles on it this weekend, and it is comfortable enough, and never rubbed or bottomed out with anything.

As a side note, I now have the rear springs I took off when I put the new kit in just sitting in the garage collecting dust. They are 160# rate, and about stock ride height installed. If anyone is interested in them, I may trade for something like LED taillights, or a decent set of projector headlights. I don't want to SELL them outright, maybe just trade for something I can use. They will most definitely take care of any ass end sag, and support extra weight of passengers, car audio, etc.
