  1. Alpine ftw. Factory tweeters are alright, you could upgrade them as well. I'd at least leave them connected, highs are a nice thing to have.
  2. And for only about $1600 + shipping + customs + tax!
  3. Yeah, I remember. All the easier to see which color I want
  4. I'm thinking black, but I'll have to see yours in person again before I make a final decision on color.
  5. Oh Jediiiii! I kindly request a siggy, plzkthxz. Pics in my progression, can get more if needed.
  6. You can set them to one color. They also sell single-color kits. O RLY?! We might have to do a little mini install meet soon, so we can get my calipers done and I can get your LEDs or neons or whatever you end up going with done.
  7. You have the VIN? Can you request information at your local DMV about the car? If they registered it, and their info is real there, might be worth the $5-10 to get the info.
  8. I expected someone to say something at some point. Caliper paint job is coming soon. They've been horrible since day 1 (I bought the car used). Wheel cleaner hasn't helped.
  9. Alright, after having my G6 for almost a year now, I figured it was probably about time to start tracking this stuff. So! From the beginning, it is a 2008 Pontiac G6 GT with the 3.5L VVT (LZ4) and 4-speed automatic with tapshift. Here she is mostly stock, after her first wash: I said mostly stock, because these babies have followed me through three cars, and they went into the car 3 days after I bought it. They are twin 10" Alpine Type-S subs in a sealed box, paired with a Sony Xplod 1100W amp. Most recently installed vid, the 4 piece, 7 color LED interior kit from LEDGlow. If you don't liek teh metal, gtfo [youtube]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3_Lo5eDxdeo (Apologies for my camera's mic being fail, apparently it didn't like my twins in the trunk) And, of course, the obligatory 36,000 mile pic: For the future, I hope I can get my hands on HIDs (soon!), intake, and exhaust. There are other things I'd like to do, I'm still deciding how far I want to take this particular car, though, and of course modding is an expensive hobby. Anyways, enjoy, I'll post up new stuff when it comes in and gets installed.
  10. I'd imagine something that's stuck on from when he tried to roll through the water, or from when he was cranking it with no plugs. But, of course, always get it checked.
  11. Had to bring this over here, cmessick on G6P posted this in one of the million "my g6 just got wreck/totalled/destroyed" threads on there right now: "1badg6gt thought he had a jesus car.." i lul'd.
  12. Kia Forte Koup is BA. Just sayin'.
  13. lol... upgrade for the g6. Other than the Cobalt SS Brembo brakes, no. And from what I recall, it's not a direct bolt-on, requires wheel spacers. Not to mention it's, like, $900-1000 for everything new, if you can't find them on a part-out or jy. Calipers look good, Jedi!
  14. Could be a balance issue, or maybe a bad u-joint. And I believe you're talking about the rear sway bar. Those things are tiny on thirdgen's, and rust like crazy.
  15. Sounds like the cop was a nice guy. Don't feel bad, I remember the first time I got pulled over. I was driving an 89 Taurus wagon I picked up after the Camaro got wrecked, and noticed a gray Charger following pretty closely behind me on a little used neighborhood road (I was headed home). Next thing I know, blue lights. Wondering why a unmarked, high speed pursuit car was pulling me, I started freaking. He got up to the window, asked for license and registration, yada yada. He comes back after running my info and says: "Know why I pulled you over?" to which I replied "No, sir." ... He pulled me over for failure to inspect vehicle (VA requires that you get a yearly inspection). I calmly replied that I didn't know the inspection was up (by 2 weeks), to which he replied "Yeah. Okay." and wrote me a ticket anyways. Then got into his high speed pursuit vehicle and drove off. That was a douche. To this day I find it funny my first ticket was in a 89 Taurus wagon and not my 89 Camaro Z28...
  16. If you have the car on, you should shift through all the gears, as well, then check.
  17. Holy dash removal Batman! ... I don't imagine that was a ton of fun.
