Graphic doesn't look to bad did you put it on or did it come that way?

Thanks for the compliments guys! I appreciate it!

If I can get the cash, I hope to put on:
Dr. Speed Stage III
Borla or SLP cat-back
Chip for faster/higher RPM shifts, more power
Headers? (Do they make these for a 1999 GAGT, can't find any)
SC/T Body Kit (ONLY after the performance mods, no domestic rice here! :-))

And, the guy I bought it from put the vinyls on. I think they really set the car off, not too flashy.

P.S.- GAOTW anyone?

Nice car. Needs tint though.

PsychoTeddy

Yeah, I guess tint would make it look better. It's never really been something I can't live without, though... Plus, I think tint is illegal in Ohio, not sure...

Just curious:???: which picture do you guys like?

Personally, I like the first one the most...

The first one is good. I did notice the missing air dam and try the flash to fill in the shadows.

Sorry, I'm gonna sound like a total n00b, but, what's an air dam? That peice of plastic under the bumper?

I probably did use flash, but it was so freakin bright outside that it would have made no difference. I actually had to darken the picture.

You got it. It is attached to the radiator support and doubles as a curb finder in parking lots. Looks like yours was damaged and cut off.

Yeah, probably... I've NEVER hit any parking blocks though (I'm verycaustious of that because of the front bumper's height) so it must have been the guy that had it before me... Oh well... I've seen GA's in worse shape here... :-)

Looks awesome. I love the graphic. Its there but not if you know what I mean.

Go out and clean them chrometech rims up. They should be CHROME!!! lol

Tint cant be illegal in ohio. Just a certain value of tint is. Go ask a tinting place as they will know.

Also get a custom exhaust. Itll cost way less then the Borla or SLP and you can choose what you really want.

All i can say positive about it is it appears to be in good shape for a 99.
You need a liscence plate filler.

Wow! Thanks you guys! I didn't think that I'd be getting this much positive feedback! :D

As for the rims, I've washed them thoroughly before and they don't have that chrome effect to them. I think 99 GAGTs offer the non-chrome version of those wheels, which I have... Wish I had the chrome, though... :)

I have the same ones, there isnt anyway to get a good shine on them at all. No matter what you do they will always have a flat look to them.

Ive seen a few on here that had a really nice shine to them. Oh wells the car looks damn awesome anyway.

Well, these pics were taken when I first got the car, I had temps on it and they only give you one... So, the front has a plate on it now... I live in Ohio, so you HAVE to have a plate on the front too... Grr...

I live in ohio and I have had the car since Dec05 and have not had a plate on it

They're not really strict about it, but you still have to have one... My mom is a lawyer, and she told me that you MUST have one on the front... It must be one of those things they add on to your violations list if you get pulled over for something else...

The guy that had it before me had the graphics put on, so I have no idea where they were done...
