    I'm Emma! I've had my 05 GP GT for 2 years now. I bought it with 91K and now have 132K and it still runs like the day I bought it! I recently had a itch to trade it, so I test drove a few cars but realized there's no other car for me than my GT! So, after driving my baby stock for 2 years I'm begining to customize it. Starting off with body work, later on when I have more money I'll start some under the hood mods.


    When I first bought her: 6/10




    Tinting: 5/12



    Plastidipped grille, wheels, and trunk lettering: 6/12




    Next I'm thinking about painting my calipers red, and I might plastidip my side mirrors, just to see how it'd look- I can always take it off.


    I'm very open to suggestions on what might look good, on the cheap.

    Looks good

    id say full debage, inlays, some kind of contrast in the wheels, - - too much black, looks too dark IMO

    interior stuff is always fun to do, you get to enjoy it yourself.

    Around here people like to troll hard.

    david likes to troll more than most, to the point of absurdity lol

    sometimes he trolls so hard/often no one knows what he's doing.

    I love my white- sometimes. I live in a rural area and do alot of highway/country road driving, by the end of the week the front of my car can get a good 1/2'' of bugs.

    Yeah that's the only downfall. I've just had to come to terms with a) rock chips on the hood and bumper, and b) the damn buggers. Hhah

    Yeah mine did. I'm the second owner, and I knew of the people but didn't know them personally. They special ordered things. Like I have those rims, no sunroof (which makes me sad), cloth seats, and I also have a HUD (which I haven't seen in another GT.)

    Your car looks good! If i were you i would try plasti dipping the mirrors. I did it to mine and like it alot. Makes it stand out a little more, imo.
