~'04 Bonneville GXP~

Post by PaulyGXP »

I realized I still have not posted any pictures of my GXP, and thanks to Haro's how to post pictures this should be easy enough :beerchug: . I've got a few projects to do so I thought I would take a couple pictures before I start changing things. Mods so far include tinted tails, Magnaflow exhaust, K&N Drop-In Filter.

Soon to come projects!
Orange and Carbon Fiber GXP Overlays
Orange Arrowhead Overlay
Repaint Calipers Orange and Black
5000k HID Fogs
6000k HID Low Beams
Powder Coat Wheels Gunmetal or Black (Haven't Decided)

Image

I also have to fix the splash guard/air dam under the front bumper. FYI, not my cig in the picture lol.

Image
Forgot to close the rear door on this picture... oops...
I'll keep posting photos as I knock off projects!

Looks awesome. I love what you did with the taillights. On the wheels, personally I'd go gunmetal, cause black will just have the car looking too dark. IMO

I'll take more pictures of the tails so you can see them better. I really want the wheels chrome but I don't know of any chrome shops near by, and I'm sure it will be a bit more expensive.

Honestly, I'd find some aftermarket wheels you like, and either sell or store your stockers. A: You'd probably make money if you sold them, and B: Powder-Coating is really expensive...

Honestly, if you go for aftermarket rims you will probably make most of your money back when you sell your stockers.

I LOVE the orange. Normally I'd say your car needed cleared headlights, but I think the orange touches tie the amber corners in nicely. LOVE IT.

Hey thanks! When I get the wife's camera for a day I can take some quality pictures. I was just excited to show off a bit. The orange is so bright, it just says BAM lol. Looks great though, really pops

Why'd you tint the rear center reflector?

It's actually painted. I don't really like it red on the black cars. It stands out to much, sort of looks cheap. If it was actually a light or something I wouldn't have painted it.
