Thread: Just a Phantom Black Metallic GTO..Named Shadow

I don't care if the fad went away in 2002, I still like the murdered out look.

Now get rid of those yellow side markers lol.

Looks gewds Tank

found this for ya http://tinyurl.com/qgjtogk stock 18 rims

It's ruined.

I agree with Nick.

Cam doesn't know what he's talking about, it isn't ruined at all. Don't listen to him.

The black wheels look good, but some "real" wheels would be ideal

Hmmm I'm 50/50 on the wheels. I still like them in silver a little more.

GTO is getting better and better! Think I would have been doing the exact same thing as you're doing lol. Murdered Look is awesome.

For that price I would rather get a decent aftermarket wheel.

Yeah, real wheels not in the budget, 22bucs of spray paint was...hence new look LOL. One day I will get some better wheels.

The original silver was just boring IMO. I had to do something. I like the way it turned out.

Thanks. I do what I can, with what I have.

Today I fixed the passenger lock actuator, old one stopped working making it a PITA to lock the car. Also replaced the window switch trim with one that didn't have a melting spot from previous owner cig.

I painted the wheels GLOSS Black because I wanted to change it up and also hide all the curb rash the wheels already had.

At least I didn't do like some GTO owners and plastidip them matte black which looks worse that plain silver IMO.

Yall know how I am about the GOLD theme. I want to do gold calipers, inlays, and maybe wheels if I can find the right set. After that I'm good. Get some LT's and new cat back, then done. This thing has plenty of power for me.

Oh you're "done".

I know that statement.

My wallet and signature disagrees.

HAHA, knew you'd call me on it. Motor wise, yes, after long tubes it's done. I'm not lowering it. I'm at a content place in my car life. I will replace worn parts, but no major stuff. Staying NA, to boost this car would cost 6k...f that. I did order an oil catch can. Read up about LS motors doing better with one, Dirty Dog has one on his GXP. Do you have one yet?

Eh, they don't look that bad. Ours has staggered 18" 335s on it and most folks think they're stock. Other than HRE or Fikse, nothing really pops on these cars.

you're so high. there's so many wheels that look good on a GTO. you just don't have a very extensive list of wheels you LIKE.

Must be nice!!! JK, my budget determines what part is going on the car. I could have gotten a Morshimitto Rad, but then would never hear the end of it from household 6.

True, unless you roll fenders or mini tub, can't go wider than 275 and that's pushing it on non rolled fenders. So from what I have seen Goat owners are limited on what can be mounted.

C'mon man, stock 17 GTO rims are horrid I agree, but in this case, going black looks way better IMO.

I agree with WS6 TA bro, unless you got deep pockets or put your car before your family, there are not many styles of wheels for GTO's. If I had the funds, I would have some killer Vossens or some other $1000+ per wheel setup. In my case the car comes last if the part is not needed, family first.

If I had the funds, a GTO would not be pictured in this thread I would pay to have a Maloo (ute) from down under or a G8 GXP with mad mods.

Yup black wheels work in this case. Mod what you can, when you can I know gto parts aren't cheap. Good job so far TT
