I bought the car in June of last year. It's an 04 gtp, purchased with 74k miles. Single owner, old man driven and serviced/detailed religiously. I consider myself very lucky :D
First things done were mobil 1 synthetic, amsoil transmission fluid, autolite 606 copper spark plugs, 180* thermostat, and LIM gaskets.

Here's a terrible quality photo of when I picked her up, dealer sticker and all. This is literally the only completely stock photo I have of the car.

I don't have install pictures but I do have some progression photos.
At this point the only real mod was the intake. Also some tail tints and a half debadge.

Then came SLP catback, new headlights, an orange rear inlay, and an orange arrowhead overlay.

^me and Erik :D

After this, a 3" DP and plog were installed, and it was tuned by 99prixgt.
Also, changed the inlays to white and removed the arrowhead.
Oh, and Tenzo R Tracers from Drunkie ;)

And that's where I stand currently. Before you all jump on it, yes I plan on going lower lol in fact that's most likely the next mod. Then I'll get tints and go from there.

I liked the stock ones too...until they started peeling REALLY bad. Those pictures don't justice to how horrible they look now lol and I was constantly losing tire pressure.

I think those wheels look awesome on the black, they cleaned up good for you?

Once you drop it will be tits...btw your exhaust sounds awesome, the sound is perfect, not that typical 3800 hollow sound.

peeling? hmph. nothing a little TLC couldn't fix. I thought I read somwhere that those OE wheels always had bead issues... maybe I didn't read wrong. I wish you were closer, I'd LOVE to get my hands on a set of those 17"'s. wonder what the shipping would be like from Jersey to Barrie...

again, nice car.
