    I have a 2003 Pontiac Grand Prix GT SE I beileve. I love my car and I constantly would like to improve it. Im debating on whether or not I should get tint or wheels. I dont know too much about my car so im not sure which rims/tires would fit. I also have been noticed alot of people getting bullitt rims. I would like to see what you guys think would look best, or if you have any other suggestions on what to do. Thanks

    Pictures of my car:

    for a GOOD tint job id expect $250 for every window to be done.

    dont get bullits anyway, everyone has them and it's getting played out. just like GXP wheels.

    first of all why the heck do you want your car to have part mustang in it, but i would get new rims, (not mustang) then tint
    Loud music, roaring engine and nowhere to let go..

    You have the Limited Edition just by looking at your spoiler. That's a good looking LE you have. Tint is always nice. For wheels, I agree with everyone else that bullits are played out just like the AE 077's. Are you looking to go with a black or chrome wheel? Also size? 18's are always good but 20's can be pulled off if its the right style and is lowered a little.

    I want a good black and chrome look. I'm thinking about black rims and tint would look good.

    Ehh lets face it, Bullits are dirt cheap for a reason.... Everyone has them, one day we will be known as the Pontiacs who wished they could be a Ford and that's the day I will sell my GP

    I have 18" black falken koblenz. You can click on my fquick page and see how they look. They have a chrome lip on them. A simple 5 spoke design is always good. Check tire rack's site just to get an idea of wheel style. Wheels next s another decent site to check.

    i think ill be getting tint soon, i got a few estimates and the cheapest i found was 225-235 w/ tax for all 4 windows and rear. Im probably going to go with 20% tint, i think the state law is 30%.
