    I am about to purchase a 1999 Pontiac Grand Prix GT Coupe w/3.8L for myself. I have a couple of questions though. As of right now, it needs an intake gasket and the valve cover is leaking. It's going to be taken care of though. My question is where can I buy a driver side mirror for the car online for a reasonable price; same color?? I will also be looking out for a new front bumper because it is scratched up pretty bad. Is that worth looking online for? Also, I will be needing the leather covering the passenger air bag reupholstered due to sun damage. Where should I be looking to have this done?
    And...I have the VIN number. Will the Pontiac dealer website tell me if any recalls are needed/have been done? Basically, I want to make sure the car is being taken care of when I get it. The engine work is no problem, my father is a mechanic. So what can I do with what I know?
    What are some good things to add on to this car [i.e. bug shield, window guards, the lighted Pontiac decal on the bottom of the back bumper, etc.] that some of you have already done and liked or found helpful? Even pertaining to the engine...just throwing around some ideas. Also the top has faded a little due to sun damage. Any ideas to restore any color or protect it further? Just want to fix it up really nice
    Thanks!

    call dealer with vin and see if valve cover recall has been done... search for morad on ebay ... they specialize in W body parts and usually have anything u need. reflective concepts has the vinyl inlays. they can be found in vendor section of forum.
    also look here for after market stuff. INTENSE-Racing.com - Pontiac G8, Grand Prix, Bonneville, Regal, L67 3800 Supercharged Performance Products, Mods and Tunes. ZZPerformance 3800 Performance - high performance aftermarket car parts for your Grand Prix, Monte Carlo, Impala, Regal, Bonneville, and V6 F-body!!
