Brian P Posted June 29, 2007 Report Posted June 29, 2007 So my sister's 2002 Grand Prix SE has some damage from a repair shop. The lower rocker panel got dented after it got inspected. Well I had a quote to get it repaired for $300, and I got the settlement. Well, $300 can also turn into a new body project for it! Ed Morad for the lower panels: http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&sspagename=ADME%3AL%3AAAQ%3AUS%3A1&viewitem=&item=230110047657 I got the door pieces from a u-pull-it yard for $7. Yeah! Bumper: http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&ih=013&sspagename=STRK%3AMEWA%3AIT&viewitem=&item=230127119393&rd=1,1 Then after these are all installed, I'm gonna locate a set of duals. Progress pics as I go along Quote
slick Posted June 29, 2007 Report Posted June 29, 2007 Nice! I forget, but do the GP's have door cladding also? Quote
Brian P Posted June 29, 2007 Author Report Posted June 29, 2007 yeah, I don't have it pictured. That's what I picked up for $7 at the u-pull it yard. Quote
slick Posted June 29, 2007 Report Posted June 29, 2007 Wow, lucky! I can't find the bonne stuff anywhere! Quote
Euro Posted June 29, 2007 Report Posted June 29, 2007 Nice!! I kind of want to do this to my dad's 03 SE. The sides and the rear just look wrong, then there's the Tri-Y wheels it has :yuck!!!!: Quote
terryk2003 Posted June 30, 2007 Report Posted June 30, 2007 badasss...but, does it already have the non-ant eater style front bumper!?...if so, are you gonna paint the lower part of it!?... Quote
DiscoStudd Posted July 1, 2007 Report Posted July 1, 2007 2000 was the last year for the "anteater" nose. SE's from 01-03 got the GT/GTP front bumper. Nice title, BTW! Quote
Euro Posted July 1, 2007 Report Posted July 1, 2007 Thankfully...everytime I see an SE with no spoiler, hubcaps, and the ant-eater front end I want to gouge my eyes out. Quote
White93z34 Posted July 1, 2007 Report Posted July 1, 2007 that 97-2000 front end always reminded me of "silence of the lambs" Quote
Brian P Posted July 2, 2007 Author Report Posted July 2, 2007 yeah it's got the GT front clip. I probably will leave it all silver, looks pretty good that way. It also has the silver 5 spokes already so that's one less thing to worry about. Quote
runt Posted July 2, 2007 Report Posted July 2, 2007 that 97-2000 front end always reminded me of "silence of the lambs" Or a tadpole. Quote
Psych0matt Posted July 2, 2007 Report Posted July 2, 2007 that 97-2000 front end always reminded me of "silence of the lambs" Or a sperm. fixed! Quote
Brian P Posted July 2, 2007 Author Report Posted July 2, 2007 sperm I got the panels today, they're galaxy silver!!! Quote
runt Posted July 2, 2007 Report Posted July 2, 2007 And we already know that it has an upgraded CD player on the inside. Quote
Brian P Posted July 2, 2007 Author Report Posted July 2, 2007 it has a POS Aiwa that I want out of there. I have that stock Pontiac CD player to use however the display backlight (LED) isn't working. Quote
Euro Posted July 2, 2007 Report Posted July 2, 2007 I got the panels today, they're galaxy silver!!! d'oh!!! wrong color! Quote
Euro Posted July 2, 2007 Report Posted July 2, 2007 oh whoops...I thought this was a 2000 for some reason Quote
Brian P Posted July 3, 2007 Author Report Posted July 3, 2007 yeah I meant to inspect it. hack, lets do it now brbk Quote
Brian P Posted July 4, 2007 Author Report Posted July 4, 2007 Unwrapped the lower rocker panel cladding, and fack, it isn't galaxy silver. As you can see, from my junkyard run,TWO of the door cladding are galaxy silver, the other two are gold. Just as well I guess. Quote
Brian P Posted July 5, 2007 Author Report Posted July 5, 2007 I was debating whether or not to mount them first, then paint, or just paint them off the car. I'm leaning towards the latter. Quote
Monkton Posted July 5, 2007 Report Posted July 5, 2007 Definitely paint them before you put them on the car. Quote
jeremy Posted July 7, 2007 Report Posted July 7, 2007 Definitely paint them before you put them on the car. defintely Quote
