    forgot about that, if you dropped pully without supporting mods take it off before you ruin the motor.

    on a side note, i want to buy your engine cover?

    It has the supporting mods. so it won't ruin the motor.

    The Engine Cover is actually a overlay

    and can be purchased for around $15.00USD You can Customise the Color and all. Just make sure to Wash and Sand the Engine Cover before you apply the decal's
    ( GTP Engine Cover Decals - 97-03 Grand Prix - Under the Hood)

    I couldn't agree with you more sir. These Tail Light as well as other styles (Black, Chrome, Smoke) Can be Purchased from Aftermarket Lighting Accessories - Euro Tail Lights, Headlights, LED Taillights at Coolights (Pontiac Grand Prix Euro Tail Lights - Black Style, 1997 - 2003)

    uh, on your pulley if you dont have atleast, headers, full exhaust, intake, pcm retune, just for starters, your probably dont have supporting mods for your pulley size, especially if you have no clue what size it is...just my input, and i'm not to fond of your ricer honda tails either, but to each his own.
    F clean cars, I Ride Dirty!.....to hide the wicked body damage...

    I like the headlights and the amp. Aside from that......I won't say any more cause it wouldn't be good remarks. What the other guys said, you might want to be sure of your supporting mods if you don't even know what size pulley is on there. If it's smaller than 3.4, you might need more than you think. That's a small pulley you have. Read this if you haven't......

    Yea make sure you know what's on your car performance wise. If it's just that downsized pulley, I suggest you find the orignal and replace it. I would hate to see you lose your car after you've put time and money into it. Oh and read that thread linked above me to get very good info on how to mod your Grand Prix performance wise.

    Smart ass aside. Seriously, these cars are very sensitive to pully drops. Measure it and someone here will be able to tell you what supporting mods you need to run that safely or you will have chunks of engine parts lying in the bottom of your oil pan

    Sound system = fail and the steering wheel cover is gay, get rid of it.

    Blue lights are terrible and ugly as well. Tails as well...

    And the good? Some of the better stock wheels, paint doesnt look terrible, but photos are deceiving. Typical projectors.

    And its not that custom at all really... Kinda a let down from what you labelled the thread as.

    The subs are about the worst on the market.

    The head unit is garbage.

    $3500 is not a amazing deal on a GTP

    We know it's a pontiac, no need to post up the banner.

    Tails are ugly as hell.

    From the looks, the pully is the same as stock, who told you it was a "Upgraded system" ?

    I can't find anything I like about it.
