Red 2006 Grand Prix GT Supercharged

^^^Looking sick bro.

Hey im just throwing this out there that you should try getting a front and back STB. A Strut Tower Brace, i joined the impala forum to find out more on em cause i wanted to get the newer impala (Wont be getting it now due to budget so ill see what i can get instead). Some of the guys tryed it and they say its a must to get on a W-Body, it reduces body role and is a relativly cheap mod and seems to make a difference when driving. Especially in corners they do really well for the car. But ya just throwing it out their i don't know if anyone has mentioned that on here but ya, just my 2 cents

thanks dude, yeah ima get one eventually. For the 04+ they're $110-120 so ill grab one sometime. I'm waiting for some to pop up for sale here to get one cheaper. Or if you ever know someone, send em my way.

^ eBay it hit up a junkyard they're pretty common. IIRC I got both the front and rear for like $30

Lmao from where?! Dude you get all the deals. I need to bring you shopping with me.

Ya the junk yard should have plenty. But i rather but new, i think you check out ZZP, im not sure if they have em but if not then amazon. I dont know if this is the same on the GP but i think its a pain in the butt to put on the rear ones so people on the impala forum said they use these brackets from Dom brackets or somthing like that its called. But ya they make it a a hell of a lot easier to install in the back.

I can get in my back ones just fine, I just did my springs n got power tools back there okay. As long as they're the two bolts. The three bolts would be harder

I bought those off the forums years ago but also I've seen them at the junkyard ever so often.

Just get the brackets so you don't have to drill into your car. It's worth the money.

Headers are a very simple install...just time consuming....prep before hand......PB Blast the hell out of all bolts you'll be removing....make sure you have better clamps, RTV, and if you can't salvage the stock gaskets buy a decent pair of felpros....took me 2 days, maybe about 8-10 hours.....I really took my time, but I also ran into problems with stubborn bolts....all in fun....there's really no better feeling than knowing it goes faster because you put it in....

Yeah man I got ya, I have my days where I say I don't wanna do it by myself. I just did my springs by myself with just write ups from here. And it was a real pain just for little stupid reasons. I'd just rather have someone there to give me a second opinion and think out problems haha. I'm good at directions n definitely a hands on person so I'm probably capable of doing it. I would take my time too to make sure it's done right. I want to get rid of the ubend too but I have a shop for that. I just need to boss up n do it. I need a garage for that tho n it needs to get warmer first cuz I don't wanna break any bolts. You do yours alone, n do you have that kind of experience?

Liking the low,.... get a straight-on side shot next time to see the front/back drop. Then you can get it added to the lowering your car thread for DNA.
The rear might need the ol deadhookerinthetrunk mod.
Moving right along into summer/header season cuz spring sure as hell doesn't feel like spring.
You get the endlinks?

Yeah I'll grab one tomorrow. I have probably a 50+ pound subs n box right above it lol. I'm sure the back isn't gonna get much lower. It doesn't look too bad to me tho. Fairly happy for $82 lol. You're right this weather is not doing us any good. Nope I still haven't got my end links yet, trying to decide what to go for. Lucky I just don't drive too much yet but I really should jump on that before I need to.

It sure looks good in your avatar, That's the chit.
and if you like it, its' all good...end of story

Thanks man n agreed!

looking good i need new rims since i sold my bbs reps =[ to affored my cam lol just got milled heads =]

YA that link should help, and like redcomp said those brackets would be good so you dont have to drill into your car. Id only drill holes maybe for the front ones but thats it.
