Re: 97 White GTP Coupe

Must be nice to have a body shop at your leisure. I need to mask off and shoot my rims too. I saw them like this on a monte. I already have the black pontiac center so it should look good. What you think Ed.

Re: 97 White GTP Coupe

i think they will look good on your car are they 16's? and ill be doing a write up when i paint my rims it might help you out a little and masking them out shouldn't be to hard.
 
Re: 97 White GTP Coupe

There was a GP SE around here with those wheels TexasTanker. I think they will look good. They looked good on the SE but I think it died soon after and was a rust bucket.

thanks! it sounds pretty good but just the smallest bit of rasp but not to bad at all, im happy with it and it sounds way better then my old exhaust both my resonator and mufflers both had holes in them lol, and this exhaust sound really good at idle.

Re: 97 White GTP Coupe "New Wheel Updates"

Are you gonna paint the black stripe? Or just use Vinyl or something? If you go that route you can always take it off if you dont like it. I think it would look pretty good with a little bit of contrast.
 
Re: 97 White GTP Coupe "New Wheel Updates"

if i do the stripe im going to paint it i just want it to be different then the plain white rim just because i can lol, plus my car is like a white and black theme going. also i dont think the stripe will be too noticeable unless you look close and i like the little details you don't usually see unless you look close
