SuperBuick Posted October 1, 2002 Report Share Posted October 1, 2002 Albeit ghetto style but hey, I spend my time working on the cars not the web pages, lolol. Actually I'm too busy with schoolwork to get into web stuff just now but I wanted to share some recent pics I took. - Tom http://155.48.119.26/~rlydon/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NORBI Posted October 1, 2002 Report Share Posted October 1, 2002 Did you get the Lumina repainted in Maaco?? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SuperBuick Posted October 1, 2002 Author Report Share Posted October 1, 2002 Yes, you can clearly see the difference in quality of paint between the two cars. the reflections are blurry in the Lumina, but honestly, noone except paint freaks would really notice, to most everyone they say it looks like it is brand new. I have no problem with Maaco paint jobs, they are an inexpensive way to make your car look much better. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest 96SupremeCuttySL Posted October 1, 2002 Report Share Posted October 1, 2002 Yeah, I noticed the difference in the paint jobs. Both are pretty nice, but the one on the buick is like a mirror. . . That's a very sharp looking car. Just out of curiosity, what kind of wheels do you have on it?

RedZMonte Posted October 1, 2002 Report Share Posted October 1, 2002 I like the muffler on the regal. How does it sound? what kind is it, my buddy has a regal and is looking for muffler. You interested in an intake kit w/o filter? I have one that fits your car and you can reuse your K&N. RedZ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SuperBuick Posted October 1, 2002 Author Report Share Posted October 1, 2002 I could not ask for a better sounding muffler on the regal. it is a straight-through one that i got from JCWhitney for $119. The car has no rasp, it just rumbles like a boat motor. When I previously had a cherry bomb turbo muffler on it it sounded like crap, way to "contrived" sounding, and it got raspy at the top end. If you ask some of the guys who were at the W-Body meet and heard it they could tell you, its nice and mellow and deep and burbly. i really like it, I could go on and on about how glad I am to have it, and I like the way it looks. How much for the intake sans filter? - Tom Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was going to do 2.25" to a magnaflow but if that one is cheaper then i will try to find that one for him. PM me on the price i don't wanna piss anyone off with posting personal stuff on here. This looks to be the one or not? http://www.jcwhitney.com/item.jhtml?ITEMID=56065&BQ=jcw2 I kind of like this one as well: http://www.jcwhitney.com/item.jhtml?ITEMID=43378&BQ=jcw2 RedZ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
89BuickRegalGS Posted October 2, 2002 Report Share Posted October 2, 2002 damn man, i really envy you. I have a 89 GS model, 2 door, full body kit (make sit look really low), I just can't afford to fix everything wrong with my car, get the rims, and paint job, its depressing.

SuperBuick Posted October 2, 2002 Author Report Share Posted October 2, 2002 No need to envy, I'm not made of money, its just alot of hard work put into making them look nice. Take a look at the before and after pics of the lumina motor, that cost me all of $50 to make it look like that. I'd love to have the full body kit on my regal, but alas I can't afford it, so I live with only the rear bumper, which is the most crucial piece. Do you have any pictures of your car? why not use the stock rims, clean them up real good. 89 stock rims are 16", and I think they look pretty nice too. Just gotta think....... Thanks for your compliments, its nice to hear them. -Tom Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
