My '99 Prix, now with moar white car

Nothing too special, pretty much all stock at the moment, for the most part.

I certainly wasn't fond of the color, at first. It has really grown on me. I know, I know, it needs tint, and moar low... It will come eventually :th_winking: . I will say, even though the interior is in great shape, I hate it. It needs to be black!

This car was 100% stock (minus the wheels). Today I rigged up a crappy intake because I was bored lol, I'll do it right eventually. Recently did the LIM gasket, painted both lower fascias, and also some wire tucking and such.

Onto the pictures (sorry for rambling on)... She's not too pretty... But not bad for a 14 year old car with 140k :)

A little cancer on the sides of the bumper...

Re: My '99 Grand Prix

Next on the list (not really in any particular order for most). Going to TRY and not be a ZZP nutswinger ;). Let me know if anything is out of line.

Coilovers
XP cam, of course 130's and double roller, etc
Plog and ZZP catted dp (or headers?) I really want to maintain the factory noise level
25% tint
Tinted tails and clear corners, retro fits, LED interior lights
3.4" MPS, and GenV
Black interior
Aluminum valve covers
SD hood or a very similar one
40th spoiler and shaved key hole
Respray bumpers
F-Body brakes, I'll coat the calipers silver
Probably different wheels, really like the Eneki RSM9's and Rajin's. I also REALLY like Bonneville GXP wheels.
Fix rusted rockers and strut towers (planning on winter of 2014/2015.)

ETA- 3/6/14, things that are done.
Tint & Tinted tails
F-body brakes, just need to install
Shaved 40th deck lid and SD hood
Coilovers are 1/2 way done.
3.4 MPS on the shelf, waiting for supporting mods.

"Nothing to shabby" WHAT!!! You got a clean ride bro. If you saw my ride up close, you would LOL. Keep up the good progress. Make headers be the first performance mod, wish I had.
 


Re: My '99 Grand Prix

Yes? No? 18x8 with a 40mm offset, quite reasonable too. I'm a ways out yet, just kinda looking aroun to see what I like.

Re: My '99 Grand Prix

My car got a buddy today.... '05 GT (wish it was a GXP, oh well). 90k miles, pretty darn clean. I must say, W-Bodies FTW, although I'd like to pull the seats out of this GT as throw them in my GTP lol.

Sorry for crappy pics, lighting is horrible in the garage! I'll probably pull them both out tomorrow and take some higher quality ones...


Yes, I know. My car still needs moar low and tint... I have other plans.....

I like the drivers side on here much better than the GTP, kind of Supra-ish :lol:

Re: My '99 Grand Prix

No.. It's not. It'll probably stay stock, maybe throw some tint up in it eventually. It's my sisters car, so I don't have a whole lot of say lulz.
 


Re: My '99 Grand Prix

Exactly what I say, both my sisters drive pontiac's. Ones a grand prix the other a bonneville, they stay stock I just have to fix them lol.
 
Re: My '99 Grand Prix

Went to a local JY yesterday, went looking for 2004+ black leather seats and 1997-2002 panels. FIRST GP we came up to.... A dark cherry metallic 40th! (After getting excited from seeing the roof rails) I saw it also had the SE wing. Beautiful interior, 70k miles, its a shame it was wrecked. Pulled the roof rails and wing off. Wish the deck lid wasn't dented so bad, or I would've taken that, too. Guy gave me the rails for free, and the wing was $75. Going to paint the rails today and probably put them on tomorrow, pictures to come. Heading to a different JY today to look for an SE deck lid...
