    Welcome!
    Well this is my 2000 Pontiac Grand Prix GTP Daytona 500 Edition! I purchased this car in May of 2012 and I've been trying to play with it ever since and now I have FINALLY done something to it! I did take alot of what you all have said into consideration and then I took off the stupid stuff. I mean come on it's the Daytona 500 Edition, can't do too much visual stuff to it! Want it lookin good I think I'm going to be doing more performance stuff than anything. I also did a photoshoot with my friends 2011 Chevy Cruze LT today and I think the photos turned out pretty good!

    List of stuff for the future:
    -Headers
    -Pully drops
    -New Intake (Homemade)
    -Complete Detailing (Inside & Out)
    -New Tail Lights (Or at least restore the old ones for now)
    -HIDs
    -Fix all my scratches and ishhh
    -GPF & GPONA decals
    -Other stuff but can't think of it right now ahaha

    Whats Been Done:
    -Aftermarket Radio
    -DeBadge'ing
    -Grill Grates repainted
    -New Headlights
    -Other stuff too ahaha
    -Audio! (2 12" MTX Terminators and 500watt Amp)

    Grand Prix w/ Chevy Cruze LT

    Just Trixie

    I'd take off the blue grills too. Unless you paint your lower facia that color blue, and make the pontiac symbol match the color of the "grand prix" on the grills. I'm colorblind, and that makes my eyes cringe. And, please forget about the "Supercharged" windshield decal. You are obviously young and I know that you want to personalize your first nice car, but don't do too much. If a grand prix sticks out, it's not usually a good thing. All that said, it's your car....do what you do.

    03 GTP...Its got pulleys and stuff.

    Back in 08' the car actually had a fire and then the insurance company (at the time) bought the car and restored it to the best of their ability. It is different scoops than the original Daytona's and its missing the flags on the sides. Other than that its all Daytona stuff. *thank you carfax

    I wonder if you could get a vinyl shop to make new ones for it?
