I read something on the first page on about pregens, but I don't see them? All I see is stock ABS wheels.
Also take the door badges off too. I have a GTP and did that, it's just so much cleaner.

I don't know what they were talking about, maybe the tips? idk.

And Blue I sealed them up pretty well, no water after a couple car washes and rain.

Pregens, what we call wheels from 1st gen w-body grand prix's.
They look like this:

Someone said you had nice pregens, but i didnt see them in any of your pictures.

Also, take the car down the road at night, you'll notice when you see the light on the road and against signs it bounces like crazy, that's one of the other nasty things about projectors.

Re: Hippo Machine's First Car - 1998 Grand Prix GT

I've been more thinking along the lines of hyper black myself. The super contrast of the white wheels on the black car, not my favorite, some people seem to like it a bunch, but it sure turns heads.

Clean car. I don't like what you cleaned it with tho, a lot of times those brush attachments leave swirl marks
