Reintroduction with Pics of my 2008



Well poop I didn't see that I had already written about the GXP spoiler in my update post. Guess I'm super excited about it. LOL. Not gonna re-edit it cuz people can just see I'm dumb... HAHA.

Yep, there's always hope. And if not... there's a WS6 :th_king-evil: If we can find one in decent condition. What in the WORLD do people do to their poor cars... like do they NEVER clean the inside? Sheesh so many of them are like raped inside.
 


This beast came today. :D

This shoulda been the stock spoiler for all GPs.

As an aside, I had the hubs look up my build sheet a few days ago and my car shows up as a GT. Rather confusing since there were NO GT's in 2008. Mine's more loaded than most GT's were, and the differences are about to end within the next year with the addition of (hopefully) the Special Edition Fascias and dual exhaust... as well as a HUD. Time will tell. I'm turning from horsepower to appearance since the issue with my stupid AC Delco PCM.
 


Yeah, it is... and I didn't feel like taking it off for the pic. LOL. It's like saran wrap on steroids. Can't wait to see yours on. :) Mine's gonna be a bit because I can't decide on other body panels I may or may not want to do and get painted at the same time. I had hubs get his price on the Special Edition package a few months ago but I can't remember how much it was. I think one of the vendors was cheaper anyhow.
 
yeah, i wanna do the front lip etc.. but thats money lol..

my spoiler is looking good.. sitting in my living room.. tomorrow after school I'm thinking its on.. wife says i can use the car tomorrow lol lucky me :D
 
I also just ordered the GXP spoiler, found a great deal. If you know someone that needs one, look at the link in my ride thread before it is sold lol.
 
Yesterday I fixed up the 4th brake light.

Today we got rid of DexCool and also completed "the last" of the horsepower mods (HV3 and 180* Tstat) I can really do until someone cracks my PCM. I have faith it will happen at some point.


Here's what we found when I took off the lower bumper extension and the air dam. Apparently my car was in Kentucky too long LOLOL. (Sorry if you're reading this and you live in Kentucky... )

of my new earrings :lol:


















I guess the next thing I'll do is throw in the reverse LED's that I ordered. Then I'll be buying a welder and some pipe and some Flowmasters and converting to "duals". (If I pay someone to do it, all I have is the mufflers and pipes welded to my car... if I buy a welder, then I have about the same amount in it, and a welder....) And then some appearance stuff I suppose. Will probably end up buying a bunch of tools and a winter beater this summer also. The GP will be officially relegated to summer car.
 


Haha thanks. I get sick of West Virginia getting ripped on (although I'm a keystone state girl originally).. :) So why not spread the redneck jokes more equally among the Appalachian states? LOL
