Only buy if you 50/50 tint, or no bueno.

I have to agree with Jim on this one, I love everything about your car but the taillights. They seem a little too flashy for what you've done with the rest of your car. To each their own however!

LOLLL those are the tyc tails and they're rare...most ppl on GAOC have tyc's or the led tails...ill probably give the black led tails a try and see how they look...theres a few ppl on cardomain who has done tyc's on silver GA's and they look great, maybe coz there was too much sunlight in the pic above

anywho...i added an sc/t badge on the trunk lid and got a black overlay for the pontiac logo

good idea..but dont tint the headlites...go for an aftermarket setup for shure

my fav montana in your gen is the tan colour with black bumpers and mouldings, it looks nice and shiney on sunny days...imagine lowering it and puttin some rims on now thats a pimp vann

nice car man...i like it

the other pics were low quality and taken on my cellphone...heres better pix

canuck springs with monroe struts and a magnaflow 12266 muffler is all thats left to do

hahaha where r u from?

ajax, on

not cool i was looking at buying that parts car.

lmao o welll, first come first serve

it was quite a drive

its been a while since ive been on here but heres what ive done in the past few days off of work !

ready, set, go

picked up a new bumper to be paintmatched since mine is hanging off the middle

found a guy on kijiji with 404,000km on his GA and he had trouble selling it so i asked him if he'd part it out (more like swap hoods and trunks), so he agreed and we exchanged hoods and trunk lids...so my gain here was a scratch-free trunk lid with an sc/t spoiler and a factory sc/t hood...my old trunk had tons of micro scratches...so i paid $480 on top and i think it was a wise move i made, my car looks 100% more complete !

dont worry guys, ive also put brand new dual post mirrors that i bought off rockauto, and ive also debadged that trunk lid too haha

enjoy! if anyone has any new ideas for my car, please feel free to spit em out

Jim - thanks bud

Chaos - i will dw loll, its rare to find power dual post mirrors up here, i think my only bet is to get it from certifit in cleveland when im down in ohio

Sadie - haha ofcourse, but sometimes i feel bad about that car..i shoulda bought it back from the insurance and brought it back alive moddin this car makes me feel much better

well heres the new car, its a 2002 Pontiac Grand Am GT1 with ONLY 106,000KM !!!

day 1 (all stock) - bought it on May 09 2011

day 2 (rims on)

day 3 (all debadged)

day 6 (somehow found a set of fresh black tyc tails !)

day 7 (cleaned all the crap outta the engine bay)

May/30/'11 - since i was busy with work and finally got a day off on the 30th, i went and got my windows tinted

sorry for not posting pics up earlier loll, i been busy recovering from back pains + working 5-6days a week !

lol enjoyy, please feel free to throw your inputs and list your thoughts on future mods

Check the harness plug (where the circuit board plugs into) and see if any of the prongs on the board are bent, or if the harness plug on the car shows any signs of corrosion and/or heat damage from a surge in voltage.

alrite ill check that out...once again thanks for the help bro

Sorry I forgot to post to some of your replies.

Just drop me a line if you are having a meet in London or Woodstock I will see if I can make it.

I like the progress of your car keep up the good work and as for the turn signals I have no clue.

thanks...yeaa im seeing if theres ppl interested on the GAOC forums...most likely setting one up in woodstock...ill shoot u a pm soon

SVS/trac off/ABS light...good chance you've got an early sign of a bad hub assembly. Get any vibrations or humming noises above 40mph?

The turn signals...check the rear tail light circuit boards (where the bulbs plug in). Is the rubber seal still there? Check the sockets for corrosion, water may be finding its way in there, and rusting the connection points on the sockets. Happened to me already, and you need to buy new circuit boards (not worth fixing) and they'll come with new seals.

Also, check the headlight assemblies to make sure the 3157 and 194 bulbs are lighting up.

well it was still ticking/flashing rapidly even with my tyc tails, then i put the GT tails and its the same story, so i doubt its something to do with the rear lights..but wat i noticed is that the inner signal bulb on the driver headlight only has one filament flashing rapidly

and on the passenger side the inner signal bulb has 2 filaments and takes turn flashing

short story, i replaced all the bulbs on the driver side and still no fix, the sockets look really clean inside on the driver side, can the wiring by the bulb socket be loose or something?

Wow, the GA's shaping up good. What's the GT conversion status? The side cladding acquired yet? Rear bumper?

got them all in my backyard shed, i needa fix some minor problems on my car and then im gonna send it off for a complete paintjob gonna stick with the oem colour

my abs,trac off,svs lights keep tripping on each time i drive the car, and then stupid driver side signal is ticking/flashing too fast wen applied, and i've changed all the signal bulbs on that side and it still flashes fast do you know if theres a ground for signal flashing? or maybe its just a bad signal bulb socket on that side

spring is just around the cornerr

nice idea, but yeaa listen to chaosweaver if u really wanna end up doing this

..you actually gonna nail in some hardwood flooring into the trunk? stick with bamboo flooring, its cheaper and durable compared to laminate flooring

looks amazing bro...keep up at it

at first the tires looked too big for the rims, until i stared into it

good choice on the wheels

i like your thread sir any other performance mods mayb? im liking those rims alot

i will get to the engine as soon as the summer ends, gonna rebuild my engine with some beefy stuff and maybe a bolt on GM supercharger that was made for the 2.4's along with a good tune

Hey can you shrink or trim you sig pic down please. The board specs are 600x150, thanks.

alrite cool, thanks for lettin me know !

chaosweaver - yeaa your rite ! the rebels do look like the montegi's lol...i gotta agree 5 spokes look good on our cars

thanks everyone and Crimson, i usually clean it once a month to keep it lookin new lol
