all done :cheers:

lookin cleannnnnn

looks good sorry to hear about the rain.

DP!! I would have to agree your paint and the cleanliness of your car is amazing!!
Move down here we have so many show you would get tired you have to pick and chose which ones there is one or two every weekend this month and 3 or 4 next month I was at one yesterday and won a plaque the show was a top 40 there was 150 cars there and the SS get's a lot of attention so you would do very well here!!

thanks fellas....there are some shows up here but with my work schedule i work a lot of weekends which sucks but bills gotta be paid lol....i had a guy ask me how i fit a V8 into a V6 car....i had to inform him it was that way from the factory and gave a little run down on our engines....i need to get one of those poster things that give specs on the car and what not....i dont think people have any clue what i have done to my car and what it really is so i get few looks and/or respect.

Nice. My favorite thing about the GXP's are the seats.

looks really good man

two words..... tap shift :D

Damn good lookin' car bro. Sucks to hear about the rain as well, all that work for an hour of good weather, just sucks. I have to say, those wheels were meant for that car, simply perfect! Thanks for the pics.

Joe.

Don't know where that came from LoL...but you get the jist of what I'm tryin to say ;)

lol thanks guys!

Damn those are sum clean ass rims,car looks great with the drop and rims...Props to ya

thank ya

Are your grills missing in some of the pics for cleaning purposes? If so, how do you remove those? Is it easy?

they just push out from the back. there is a place to put your fingers above the fogs to pull that one out and i was told that you can push the other 2 out if you take the headlights out but never tried that.

very nice!!! wish i had gotten a grand prix gxp instead of a g8gt....

very nice!!! wish i had gotten a grand prix gxp instead of a g8gt....

What!!!

that was a very surprising comment lol but yeah i took them out so i coud clean them up easier and wouldnt have to worry about anything getting on them while i was polishing and waxing

DP what buffer do you have?

flex 3401....i started out with the PC and sold that to my brother and upgraded to the flex.

very nice!!! wish i had gotten a grand prix gxp instead of a g8gt....

well if you don't want it I will gladly trade you :D

I test drove a G8 GT and liked my GXP better. Better stock exhaust sound and the A-pillar doesn't block your sight.

To get back on topic... I can't believe you got your car that clean. Check out what I encountered today. I missed my exit and had to go through a small country highway and apparently it's grasshopper season or something!

:lol: It wasn't fun at all! $3.00 in quarters at the car wash and I still didn't get everything off! LOL I popped the hood and the unlucky critters managed to get in there too!

Funny thing is, this happened at... I believe around 11am...! I thought the windshield was bad, and then while getting gas and cleaning the windshield I burst out laughing in disgust at the front bumper when I saw it.

damn man even after a pressure wash it didnt come clean.
