I like the paint scheme, kind of. If the passenger side had the same thing going on, and different colors were used (not a fan of baby blue) Then I think it would look awesome. There is too much going on the driver side, and not enough on the passenger. just my .2 cents.

well thanks again everyone, I didn't want to pay about 100 dollars for a new headlight so I was looking around online and I saw a guy who mentioned scrubbing it down with some toothpaste and I thought heck, it's worth a try so I started scrubbing and within 5 minutes all the yellow was gone

before


after


not bad huh?

and I think I know what i'm going to do with the car now
The designs are staying and I'm going to the place to get the other side done, I'm going to get a new intake, and I'm going to save up to get the gm supercharger, and i'll go from there.

also, the guy before me also painted some of the interior parts white and now the paint is starting to chip off, think I could pick up some stock parts for cheap at a junkyard?

WELCOME TO THE SITE!! Paint that car black or silver and it will look a lot better. Take that spoiler off, get two wipers, and get a pacesetter exhaust. dont keep that exhaust, how does it sound?????

Glad to see another new member, keep us posted on whats going on with your car. peaceee

he must have did those lines by hand cuz holy hell they are crooked as a maeffa

AJules 08-27-2007 10:37 PM

the exhaust doesn't sound all that bad, I don't really think it's worth getting a new exhaust for a 4-cylinder, it'll always sound like a 4 cylinder

but about the paint, it was done by a place in dayton ohio called trendsetter customs they're actually supposed to look like they do, you'd hafta see it in person or i'll take a close up

sburke 08-27-2007 10:52 PM

very unique car, I like it.

steve-o 08-29-2007 02:04 PM

get some pics of it in the sunlight, or atleast out of that garage.

alerored04 08-29-2007 02:17 PM

i think it looks good. Even out the paint and ditch the spoiler while you are at it. Then its all motor from there. Enjoy the site, learn from some here and learn to ignore others.

Dude I like the car, Most alero junkies might say it looks like crap but it don't blend in like other aleros. When i bought my Alero in GA I had never seen one b4 and might have only seen a few while i drove mine there, it got alot of looks, But in Ohio where every one drives american made cars I see like 10 a day so now it just blends in, Over all Pretty sweet Ride you got!

ares89 08-29-2007 02:43 PM

ha.. 10 a day? come my way.. suburb of pittsburgh and i see at least 20 daily and 4 on my street are the same colored sedan totally identical except one doesnt have a spoiler.. I like this car.. its different and thats what I like about a car.. the stand outishness(yay for creating words!)

billytheman1188 08-29-2007 02:55 PM

There is no such thing as blending in...... you have to do stuff to your car to make it stand out. There are a good amount of aleros where i live and i get A LOT of looks from people. SO GET MODDING! ;-)

AJules 08-29-2007 03:28 PM

wow, here in cincinnati i see a lot of them, but usually there are older people who are driving them. This one has turned a lot of heads though, I'll get some better pictures up this weekend

and also, have any of you guys put the gm supercharger on your 99? and if so, have you ran into any problems?

p1mptress 08-29-2007 10:29 PM

The car is pretty sharp for buying it like that. The paint job is different. And Welcome to the site!!!

dvd8man 09-06-2007 12:23 AM

My car has some modding white mesh grills in the front, LED in all the lights, Reverse glow gauges and i'm working on clearing my corners,

sillygirl 09-09-2007 09:46 AM

lol....silly alero.....i agree take the wing off and figure out something for that paint job but hi I'm 17 and just got my first alero...i love it and I'm ready to do some mods

tonyboi261 09-09-2007 11:06 AM

nice find bodykit is already there just paint it black and it wil be one sexy ride .....oh yea put an intake in the engine because the engine cant be boring with all that going on outside

AJules 09-09-2007 03:17 PM

yeah, sometime soon I'm gonna get one of those WAIs off ebay for 30 bucks or whatever it is, i'll leave it on till the winter is over (I don't see a point of a CAI when it's already cold outside, if it makes a difference let me know) then buy one of those 3400 CAIs and attach em together.

sorry guys but the outside is gonna look the same for while. or at least till I'm done with the engine.

tonyboi261 09-09-2007 04:23 PM

ive also heard there is some kind of problem with putting on the gm s/c on a 99 but since i dont have a 2.4 i wouldnt know for sure

yeah, I've done my research but I've heard it'll fit on the 99s but I won't be able to get gm to do my reflash (unless I'm lucky) so i'll be forced to get hp tuners
