Also, I'm still working on things like chatbox, etc so hopefully those will be working in the next week or two.

Just picked up a 2008 GP. It's just a base model with the 3.8 in it. Couldn't afford the GXP I found. :th_depressed:
Hoping you guys can get me headed in the right direction. I want to upgrade the exhaust.

Anyway I"m looking for a place to get a good quality rear valance with the dual exhaust cutouts. Mine's a single exhaust right now.

I found a dual exhaust cat back system on partsforyourcar.com says it'll work for the 08's. SLP PowerFlo Cat-Back Exhaust for Grand Prix - Exhaust

Is there a cheaper place to get parts? you can PM me if it's agaist forum rules.


Also what are you guys running for wheel sizes. Mine are stock 16"ers and I'm trying to decide between 17's and 18's. I'm hoping to avoid suspension mods. I don't want the ride to get harsh, the roads in my area are crap. Just want a better look and maybe get a little better handling out of it.

Looking at these:

Wheel Details - Discount Tire Venom

Wheel Details - Discount Tire Static

Wheel Details - Discount Tire Viper
 


welcome to the forums. I actually think there is a rule about posting other websites on the forums :O not 100% positive but pretty sure.
I would go with the venom wheels.
 


Thanks guys. The Static was the ones that first caught my eye reminds me of the Bonneville GXP wheels a guy at work has (05-06) I think? Then I stumbles across the Venom, I like the machined dimples on the lip between spokes it really adds something I think. I plan on painting the calipers red should look pretty sweet just need the money.

I'm going to check with a local shop about doing a dual cat-back. I'll see what they come up with price wise. My paint guy can get the OEM rear valance for 96.00 which isn't bad for a brand new one. I did find an aftermarket one for around 50.00 but not sure if I would trust it to fit properly. Worth the extra scratch to know it will fit and not bite me in the arse down the road. Got some OT coming up this week 3.5 hours tomorrow and Fri. and possibly 10 hours on Sat. should net me enough to do the exhaust if we work Sat.

I've been digging around on the forum and seems like most of you have supercharged GP's.
I'm not looking for low ET's or anything its a daily driver just on the boring side.
