Venom Posted April 25, 2009 Report Posted April 25, 2009 So after two straight weeks of working 50+ hrs doing hard manual labor at work I was looking forward to a real nice weekend. As soon as I got home I went to check the mail and discovered this on the front porch……. I wonder what could be in that tube? After a few minutes of removing packaging………………. ...........I was left with these two items. Anyone want to guess what they are? Anyone? Buehler? Buehler? How about a near mint set of Aweb door sills. I cannot wait to install these tomorrow after I clean them and my car up. I must say two things first though: 1. PyschoMatt you did an awesome job packing these. My job has been exhausting but I think I spent more energy getting these out LOL. But that is just what I love to see. Thanks a million man. 2. Aweb these things are awesome man. They are definitely in my top 5 mods I have done so far. Its just too bad no one will ever see them . I will take pics tomorrow with them installed in the car.

jeremy Posted April 25, 2009 Report Posted April 25, 2009 those are definitely a quality appearance mod Quote
Psych0matt Posted April 25, 2009 Report Posted April 25, 2009 I absolutely loved them, they added so much to the car. Good to see them go to someone who will appreciate and take care of them! Good thing for you I'm not planning on keeping the TGP, or I woulda kept them Oh, and I opted only to use one olds logo on each (i think it looks better/cleaner/sleeker). Also, the one I is crooked because it fell off the sticker sheet when i first put the lettering on, so I had to make one! Quote

Now that you said that Im going to keep looking at it everytime I peak down at it, thanks man They are sweet though and I cant wait to see what they look like in my car tomorrow. Quote
Psych0matt Posted April 25, 2009 Report Posted April 25, 2009 yeah, sorry I didn't clean them up much, but they shouldnt take anything more than a damp rag and 10 seconds Quote
Venom Posted April 25, 2009 Author Report Posted April 25, 2009 Didnt get a chance to clean the car today but I got anxious so I put them in. I really like the look they give the car. I also picked up a 2nd gen GP center console today while getting parts for my van. Not sold on it yet because it doesnt quite fit right and I have to use my old shifter knob unless I cut down the current shifter rod. But I do like the cupholders on it. Quote
Venom Posted April 26, 2009 Author Report Posted April 26, 2009 Well my old console has them but I like how these ones can fold back and be hidden if I dont need them. Quote
jake91 Posted April 26, 2009 Report Posted April 26, 2009 looks great. i wanted to buy those door sills but im just to cheap Quote
GP1138 Posted April 26, 2009 Report Posted April 26, 2009 Those cupholders are OK but they can be deceptive. Guard your drinks carefully until you get a feel for it. It also has a ridge that could pierce styrofoam cups if you're not careful. Quote
Venom Posted April 26, 2009 Author Report Posted April 26, 2009 fwiw: those cupholders suck ass.... The more and more Ive been looking at it the less I like the console, so I dont know if I will keep it or not. Ill leave it in for a few weeks and when I get my new carpet Ill make a decision then.

jeremy Posted April 26, 2009 Report Posted April 26, 2009 I like the console design better then the older one, but neither of them are ideal Quote
Euro Posted April 27, 2009 Report Posted April 27, 2009 Yeah, pretty much any drink taller than a can of pop will tip over pretty easily. And like John said, styrofoam cups are at risk! lol Quote
old442man Posted April 27, 2009 Report Posted April 27, 2009 X actly why I wanted those sills. Looks good man! I like the console in my Grand Prix but I don't think I'd like it in my Cutlass. The location of everything seems a bit off to me, the cup holders would be too far forward in the Cutlass I think. Quote
Addicted to eaton Posted May 8, 2009 Report Posted May 8, 2009 same cd player i had in my cutty Quote
terryk2003 Posted May 9, 2009 Report Posted May 9, 2009 those are nice...look similar to the set i had on my old cutty...i dont even remember who has my old set now...lol Quote
