a few new appearance mods...its home update


Recommended Posts

Posted

Well Im getting a little stir crazy this winter so I've been thinking of a few mods for the Prix. They probably wont go on for a couple months...1st I purchased new cleared corners with the reflector, new GTX exhaust tips(which I might sell if I could land some dual rolled tips), and a SD hood which is on its way. Heres a quick picture of the hood. All I need is some wheels and tint then I'll get into the motor which will require much more planning...I want to it right and not waste my money on useless parts.

 

*update 3/3/05*

 

Good news is that the hood is home, but the bad is that there was damage during the shipment :verymad: ...so now Im going to see if they'll cover it. The tricky part is that there was a few different companies that it took before it reached my location.

 

 

 

everything looked good until I seen the upper right corner. Then I seen that the upper left was slightly damaged as well. Fiberglass is going to be needed to fix this "BS" that the shippers caused.

Since we're talking about hoods. A friend of mine is gonna get a ram air hood and he wants to know if he should get a fiberglass one or a carbon fiber one.

my buddy has an '00 GT and has that same hood on his and i gotta tell you in person it looks like the shit!

 

:thumbsup:

That hood will look nice, trust me! :wink:

 

 

 

As for the GTX tips, those will look good too. I might be interested if you plan on selling them too. :)

Kickass on the hood! BTW: you should get it painted redfire metallic and send it this way. :lol:

I am jealous of everyone of you with a 97 and newer GP. I'm serious.

 

But that hood will look great! There are some sweet looking cars around anymore.

Yeah, I think that hood would look great, very muscle-car like.

Damn you Dan! Ship that hood to my addy...you can add some galaxy silver paint also, but that's optional! :mrgreen: I'm not quite sure what hood I'd go with if I was buying one...I've always liked the SD hood, but I'd have to dig through my old pictures to see what they look like on silver prix's.

I cant wait! Its going to look ausome...especially with some different wheels! WHy did GM put these tristars on here :bash:

Posted

That will look great on you car. Looks amazing on the sliver prix too. Look forward to Lancaster this year.

those hoods look so.....well..... ghey :bash:

 

i hear you guys slam every guy on here about making "ricer" mods on a w-body but it's cool to toss on an oversized Mitsu EVO-IV hood :roll:

 

Why doesn't someone take cues from the REAL musclecars in our line and replicate a W-32 hood or a '70 GNX hood...hell even the mid 80's GP or Regal sport hoods looked better :lol:

 

begin slams on my car, me, the fact i'm a "newbie" or whatever fuels ya here.............

:lol: :lol: :lol:

SO GHEY!

Probably because most other hoods look like pure shit and don't match the lines of the car. A hood/appearance modification isn't "rice." I suppose you think all "show cars" are rice too don't you? :roll:

glad to see that you have your own opinion! I can see where you think that the SD hood is oversized :alcoholic: and compare it to a Mitsu EVO-IV hood. :think: I guess I'm having a hard time with the anology. Please explain to me what your definition of "Ricer" is. BTW your doing a good job and I hope to see you on more often.

 

Throw us a link of your car...Im an honest guy who will tell you how I feel either way.
