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

Hi. My name's Jason. I just recently got into the GP scene since I bought my '99 GT 4DR. Never was too into them (or any FWD for that matter) lol. But when I drove it for the first time I decided this was where I was going to be for the time. lol.

On to the pics. Not much to talk about. Needs some work. But it won't be long before it's able to be driven without ducking when I see someone I know. lol

Basic plan for the car for now is to get the front end fixed and get the car painted Artic White.

Then on to the engine.
Was thinking of going the turbo route, eventually having 500+ whp.
But that will be later down the line.
For now I'm planning on doing the smaller things like exhaust, intake, injectors, FP, etc.

But before I go ahead and buy a factory replacement front bumper cover, I was wondering if anyone knew where I could find this one at, and how much it would cost.

I've seen some that appear to be a complete bumper cover, and others that seem like only a lip kit. IDK. But I can't find them anywhere for sale. Only on the cars in pics.
 


welcome to the forums, i hope you got a good deal on that. yes that is just a lip and a stock bumper which together looks really good IMO

Yeah, I picked it up for $300. Front seal leaks BAD. Will be fixed Saturday, along with new bumper cover. The headlights, surprisingly, still work, but I might end up getting some black aftermarket ones, IDK yet.

Thanks to all for the welcome.

suprchrgd PM'd me the link to the site, so the lip kit will be on order Friday.

Car is being painted Artic White, and I'm not sure on which wheels to go with yet, but I'll figure it out later down the line. All I know is that I want 19's.

And, how hard would it be to modify a turbo kit off of a 3.1 GTP onto this car?
 
Welcome. Turbo'd L26 here. You don't really want to waste your time using the older body style TGP turbo setup. Your best be would be to get the car fixed up, all the bugs worked out and then pick up a used ZZP or Cartuning kit.

Let me know if you have any specific question.
 


Didn't realize you picked up a GP. Welcome to the world of Grocery Getters. Don't know if you saw it or not but I actually made a run at the track day with a backseat full of groceries for the cookout. That was actually my fastest of the day.

What's up, man? I may bring it on the 18th. IDK yet. Base run etc. etc. Actually, if you look in my details on CR, you will see that the vehicle is now a Series II. lol
