I'm shooting for this look, now before you go posting about how a Grand Prix will never look like a BMW, no ****. I like the red lights and wheel lip.


Other flats done right.

P.S. not everybody has the funding and resources or connections everyone else does moding is a learning experience i dont see why people get so bent out of shape about other peoples machines. and something i have learned being a design student is if you like your work and take some pride in it somebody else will for sure maybe not everybody maybe not even most people. Its the projects that take the most chances that will be remembered...

You're a ******* idiot. That is all.

You can really tell it was spray painted, but I like the flat black look (with the unpainted headlights) and it should look great when done at a shop. Did anyone else see the 33 Fordish kit car Hot Rod did the last few months? They hit it with a two tone gloss black/flat black paint scheme that I thought was great. Also, count me among the group that would like to see what a skilled pin striper would do with the GP's sharp body lines. I'd love to see "325ci" done with a brush, about where the GXP badge would be.

just a shame
Gaps between the bumper and quarter look off to me...

And you have parts on your Alero that are certainly handbuilt, and to YOUR taste. To each his own, but when you bash someone elses car for being "unique" be prepared to be critiqued on your car even if it's "original" and "unique". Everyone has different tastes. But you certainly don't have a car that is handbuilt. GM built your car, you took that platform and added to it. A handbuilt car is a car built from the frame up, that is every quarter panel, the hood, the deck lid, roof line, etc.


OP, the car is definitely unique and apparently it appeals to a lot more ppl than you thought. Yes, it'll look better once it is professionaly painted, but it's a temp. fix and it's not a horrible looking fix.
