ExpressThis13 Posted January 24, 2010 Share Posted January 24, 2010 Well new to me anyway. Its a 02 Grand Prix GT with a 3.8V6, heated and power leather, sunroof and of course its black. I went to take some pics just to show it off a little bit but it is dirty due to abnormaly warm weather melting snow and making everything a mess and its been raining to top it all off. So here are some pics and the close up picture I took a gamble and used just a little bit of detail spray on the back fender to tease myself and see how well this will look completly this spring.

You are right I cannot wait until spring to give it the adams treatment. Im still having trouble deciding on how I should do things if I should go for the pc or just do hand polishing because the paint is no where near perfect and it does have some door dings, paint chips, and on the drivers door right above the middle molding it has about a 1ft crease from the previous owner so I am still undecided if I should try a pc or just go hand. Hand would be cheaper but im sure a pc would really wake this car up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chris@Adams Posted January 25, 2010 Share Posted January 25, 2010 Paintless dent removal can do wonders on dings, If you can save up for a pc:pc: you won't be sorry! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I already have plans for it. 1. Black housing headlights and corners with sylvania silverstar bulbs for the headlights and foglights 2. pfyc front lip airdam 3. pfyc ram air hood (havent decided which one yet though) 4. tint all the windows 5. chrome 18's 6. black chrome speed grills 7. intake probably kn I still am unsure about exhaust because I loved my v8 sound and im just not gonna get it out of this car but if anything it will be dynomax or magnaflows. im still up in the air on a few things like the hood because they are fiberglass and i prefer steel hoods, the headlights because I think it may look wierd with black housing headlights and regular foglights, the grills because I want chrome wheels but im not sure if it would go with the rest of the car, Ive been looking on tirerack at those sport edition kv5 (The 5 spoke ones with the bolts on both sides of each spoke) in 18's i dont want 20's. I just want to be reasonable with the mods as it is my daily driver and im not gonna spend alot on mods either. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chewy Posted January 26, 2010 Share Posted January 26, 2010 Be careful with the blacking out of things... I have tinted windows (30%) and tinted tails and got pulled over for the windows. He charged me for the windows and gave me warnings on the tails, license plate cover and no front plate. I took the cover off and reinstalled the front plate but the tails and windows stay for now...

I was thinking around 25% for the windows because i wouldnt think they would care all that much and when my plates came in I was gonna get some smoked covers for them to complete the look but it seems my plan will be several tickets waiting to happen. I wasnt planning on tinting the tails anyway and I was gonna leave the front plate off and just keep the pontiac cover on it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pulled up next to him and he pulled me over. He put his little tester on the windows and said "see." I said; "32% huh? Well makes sense as I paid for 30%." lol The cops baby momma (not married or together) works for our company and she was pissed... She said he had all that stuff on his cars before he was a cop. lol He was arrogant but I just let him be. I roll my front windows down around cops now.

You should also get clear corner lenses, they dont have the amber reflector thing in them. My exhaust is just straight, onyl thing still there is the cat. Also if you want some more power you could top swap the motor, its very very easy and all the parts can be had for less than a grand.

IowaEmt1991 Posted January 27, 2010 Share Posted January 27, 2010 Roof rails can be found on clubgp in the for sale section. Expect to spend 150-250 depending on condition, they are very rare. grandprixstore.com zzperformance.com----this is the main site for performance parts 3800performance.com w-bodystore.com--google that as im not sure on exact address Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
