Inlay Color...Opinions please

**Get Some** · 04-25-2011

Hello, just joined this site today.

I have a White 2004 Pontiac Grand Prix GT

Looking at getting some inlays for it.

Since my car is white im wondering what colors members here would advise me to get?

thanks in advance.

Get whatever your heart desires

Seriously, it's your car, do what you want with it..

Personally, Black would look good, and so would Orange..

Welcome BTW =]

The good thing about white is that you can pretty much pick any color.
Ive got a white 99 (with the gray rear fascia) and went with reflective red and Im happy with how it turned out. I had red on the front plate and on the trunk too.

I had some suggestions of gray/black, dark blue, orange
Pick a color and go with it

Do the calipers the same color too to help tie it together

And go to reflective concepts for your inlays and other sticker needs. Matt does amazing work and is great to deal with!

sweet yea im definately getting them from reflective concepts and am leaning towards dark blue...thinking that would look sweet on white...also looking at dark blue window tint..no?

**machinegunsquid** · 04-25-2011

Windows should only be tinted black IMO...The color tints are a little too much for me..kind of gaudy...

I'm pretty new to car mods. had my car for 2 years and just now decided i should do some cool stuff with it.

so far i want window tint/inlays ...maybe a decal on front windshield....not really sure what else to do to it as far as appearance lol...suggestions are more than welcomed AND appreciated

debagde, tint (dark black, try to stay away from colors ^^), inlays & of course a GPF sticker

(reflective concepts has those). paint the calipers...hmmm thats all I can think of.

What is debadge??

i'll post some pics tomorrow i guess...its dark outside right now lol

**danielle15** · 04-25-2011

haha, yeah having light works better.
Debadge is removing the badges on the car. Like the grand prix and such on the trunk and the little GM squares on the front fenders if yours has those.
Just an idea, it makes the car look cleaner.

cool, cool.

is there a thread on here about interior mods?? i'd like to change it up a bit too...just not sure where to start lol

be a gangster and do pink...j/k... i like the dark blue idea as long as the color surrounding it is light ( white)

search, look through picture threads... youll find more things to do

You like the dark blue idea for inlays or for window tint? yes my car is pearl white.

**danielle15** · 04-25-2011

On the 04+ I'm not sure. Scope out the members ride section and get some ideas from others
btw, i love that pearl white color!

Don't bother with the colored tint, nobody will warranty it, nobody stocks it either... I checked almost every place here in my city. Ended up going with %15 all the way around and love it. You can order the colored films and most said they would install it but I like my lifetime warranty too much. And debadge for sure, I used fishing line to saw through the adhesive foam behind the letters, rubbed off the big chunks and used goo gone on the rest, then finish with a little polishing compound.

**Get Some** · 04-25-2011

i'm not sold on the debadge idea yet but ill def consider it.

ok...no color tint...will go with all black tint..15% on all windows the way to go???

**SilvaMan61** · 04-25-2011

check your states legality.. 15% is dark

**danielle15** · 04-25-2011

Im doing mine 15% all around on wednesday. And I'm from Indiana and law says 35 or 30, I cant remember.
I've had 15 before but on a darker colored car and never had issues with cops.
Depends on how brave you feel.

**Get Some** · 04-25-2011

jus checked...ohio requires that front 2 windows allow at least 50% of light must be able to shine through....so suggestions for front and side n rear windshield???

**danielle15** · 04-25-2011

MissChelsea (michigan) has a white gp like yours and I think she did 35 all around and it looks nice.
And I'd go as low as your law allows if you don't wanna break the rules. I wouldn't go any darker than 15% tho, it can be kinda hard to see out of at night.
