    Trying to decide what appearance mod I should do next???

    I'd LOVE to get new wheels but that's just outta the question for now! Let me know out of this list what would look good first!

    1. Front and rear inlays

    2. Take wheels off, clean em real good, paint calipers, get new lug nuts and center caps

    3. Get new exhaust tips

    4. Black headlights to match the corners

    Or sugesstions are welcome! BUT trying to stay on a budget ;o)

    Tint your stock tail lights, those are horrible.

    Ok as far as the taillights go, they stay. I will never do tint again after the trouble I had with cops and tinting my stocks and I don't like the way the stocks look without tint. So....that's why those weren't included in the list lol

    Inlays - $25
    Good amount of caliper paint and prep work - $25
    Nice Ebay exhaust tips...dual outlets on each side - Less than $100 if you look
    Black headlights...ebay too...but not sure but I know they are like $150 shipped with the corners...I say do it all minus the headlights for now.

    If your corners are black then go ahead and save some money and paint the headlights black. It's pretty easy. I did my brother's in gloss black. I recommend using rustoleum paint for plastic. Picked up at autozone for about $6.

    I would do black rear inlays and remove the GT emblem from the trunk.

    You could always polish the stock exhaust tips.

    Your rims are really holding you back from standing out...but they are expensive so... i would say inlays for sure. You kinda have a silver and black theme going so go with the reflective concepts black gloss. That will make your rear pop. Do you have the painted torque stars or the polished? if polished buff them good! paint calipers new lugs and center caps would make stockers stand out for sure. As for the tips.. im thinking a nice NEW STAINLESS DUAL EXHAUST TIPS GRAND PRIX GM PONTIAC: eBay Motors (item 130403357091 end time Jul-23-10 14:28:08 PDT)
    Maybe something like these... personally i like rolled tips but whatever style you like. Just not those exact ones because they are back-ordered till august.

    Last thing is i would remove the GT symbol...Black looks so much better without any symbols messing it up.

    I am thinking of tinting the tails, professionally by Flip! That's the ONLY way I will do them! After that its inlays, I will work on the wheels later! Gotta get a better job for that =)~
