Thread: tinted tails and fun stuff

so i had kind of a busy day today. first i finally installed my new door speakers (will be posting in audio) then i finally tinted my tails. now the next day its nice im gonna paint the mirrors, and side moldings black to accent all the other black. also im going to be getting plack headlights too in probably a week or so.

i was just wondering if anyone had any ideas on anything else i could do thats not TOO time consuming seeing as this is my daily driver i was thinking of painting the door handles black too, so wut would u guys think about that?

here r some pics of the tails n such





ya i have a skull license plate that has light up led eyes too

Unless its just me pics aren't working.

ya sorry. tried to upload from facebook, but it didnt work. had to use photobucket

those look great on that color!

and dont paint your door handles back.

IMO I would leave the mirrors,side moldings etc body color.. You don't see very many grand prixs in that color with that good of a body on them. I do wonder what that car would look like with a GT conversion though.... especially in that color.... hmmmmmm

Clean car otherwise and nice job on the tails

thanks man. i think so too. its a 3 color car. green black and rust
but i dont think ima paint the handles either. i just want more black
but i will have the tails, headlights, moldings, mirrors, n hood scoops all black. u guys think i should paint the spoiler black to match it? i think it might look good, but i want gp owner opinions.

n just to let u kno the body is not good. i got rust under the fuel door, and the awesome rocker rot lol. n random dents, but that all gives it such good character

Is that an se? Id say decide if you'll stay content with the se, and if not buy a gt or gtp(better yet), before you do much more modding.

ima get the gt bumper, n thats it. im doin all the black, hids, debadge, window tint, n possibly rims down the road. i dont wunna just buy a gt or nothing. i like havin the lower end, n makin it unique. nobody does that anymore

My car began its life as an SE...... Now its almost a full GT (minus the lower door trim). lol Time consuming though but I haven't had much time to really do anything with my car.... just little by little... I say do what you will with your car...soo make it a reflection of your personality if you get my drift...

That's definitely cool if thats what you want to do.
I just know I started with a gt, did a little modding, and then realized I needed a gtp.
So some of the mods swapped right over simple enough when I got the gtp, some a little more work.. Just would have been easier to start with the gtp in the beginning.

gtp cost money lol. i actually bought this car for 300 bucks. it needed wheel bearings, and was smacked on the driver side. i got bearings from work, n put em on. i got 2 doors from pull a part that were the same color even n put em on. ive done shock n basic tune up stuff. i have the hood scoops that i cut out the hood and made fully functional. i did my own intake, all my underhood is painted, now the tails r tinted, n ill be doin all the black accents. im into this car for the haul as long as something bad doesnt happen
