    Now that it's the week before I go back to school and I've gotten almost everything done to the car that I wanted it's time to post some pics. Last time I posted pictures the car was completely stock but now is debadged, has tinted tails, tips, pontiac inlay, arrowhead overlay, chrome SS grills, projectors with 6000k HIDs, and a new radio with Humount display. The only thing that didn't get done that I had planned was window tint but money didn't allow that since my AC and exhaust needed work. Sooo next summer haha. Also planning a topswap for next summer since all the visual stuff is done. Going to collect over winter hopefully. Anyway here are the pictures. Sorry they aren't the best cells the only camera I have. Comments welcome good or bad just don't be a dick.

    well im not a fan of projectors, but overall i think the car looks damn good nice and clean, love the tips, grills, and the gp stereo thingy. but whats with the tramp stamp dude? i like pinstriping, but on that area it makes the car look girly IMO.

    Thanks, I knew not everyone would like the projectors but I do haha. And ya an old lady had the car before me and had all the striping done professionally. I looked into getting it taken off but it's not worth the money since it's painted on and would be a lot of work to get off.

    So far I love it too. Still messing with the sound settings and gotta figure out how to set the stupid time but other than that it's real nice haha. Pretty simple and does everything I want.

    I love the USB setup. I use my 4 gig and 8 gig jump drive and it runs flawless! The sound settings take a bit to get adjusted. If I remember right, you turn off the radio and hold the clock button until it starts flashing. then you use the knob to change it.

    A friend of mine used easy off oven cleaner to get some pinstriping off his motorcycle. He was prepared to have it repainted in-case he F'd it up, but it came out perfect. No visible damage to even the clear coat underneath. There's a quite a bit to read on it if you google it.
