Future Mods, looking for opinions!

Ok so I have some ideas for some new mods and some "redo" mods. First, I want to do reflective red inlays, got tired of the blue. Next I want to get some LED taillights. Question on those, which ones should I do? I was thinking the red would look good with the red inlays. Third, I want projector headlights, should I get the blacked out ones or chrome? Next on my list is ordering a trunk mat (in the works) and then I'm on to my next exterior mod. I'm even considering a new hood that I may get from a friend if I can find a place to get a nice paint job. Open to ideas!
 


Post pics of the car.

probably skip the projectors, light output blows unless you have HIDs & they bounce terribly
 
Well I would get HID's regardless, I have them with stock lights and yes weather stripping works wonders. I LOVE the look of the projectors. Yes, I was thinking the red LED's...maybe some tint but I'm not sure if I even want to do that ;)
 
Nikki.. This is what Seans red leds looked like when he sent them to me.

If u want to but heads and tails, look for ones that match
clear projectors, and clear tails
or black or smoked and smoke the rear ones like 99pgpgt did

I have clear(chrome) projectors on mine, and plan to put clear led tails in.
clear tails - 97-03 PONTIAC GRAND PRIX LED TAIL LIGHTS CH 99 00 01 02 | eBay

They also sell smoked clear and i think smoked heads.

And I love my projector headlights - i changed the low beam bulb with brighter bulbs.
 


^ Probably one guy you don't want to take advice from.

I say get a set of red leds and lightly tint them like 99pgpgt. As far as headlight I would do a proper retrofit but if that's not a option black projectors.

The LED tails are plug and play. No need to worry about any load resitors or a flasher module. They do make a set of red LED tails that already come smoked. You could always ask Flip to make them look like the factory tails. See the pics below. As far as the projector headlights, I had the spyder projectors and I went back to a stock set that I took apart and painted black to look like the ebay black headlights. I had the projectors for 2 years and just got fed up of the weird gaps and all of the bouncing. I had every single mod to them and I still swapped them back to stock lights. I would go with a retro rather than any of the aftermarket versions available.
