Hey Folks! I'm going tommerow to get this car checked up and revamped and fixed :P. My dad also said that, the front tires need to be in the back actually, i mightaswell take off the hubcaps because they dont even match :P. After that, I plan to make this car look nice, possible paint job to black, i love the color black and maybe some nice rims but ah i need help, where should i start first? Should i take it step by step, I dont want a car that races, i just want a nice looking car. My dad actually offered me a Nissan Maxima 08 but I refused and took the alero because i've seen some nice modifications on it and its not a bad car at all when you actually hook it up .

welcome man
looks like you got a fixer-upper
If I was you I'd just use broken things/things that need to be fixed as an excuse to replace them with upgrades/mods
and the first thing I'd do would be getting all new (or used) rims.
and also, I'd suggest looking for people selling or parting out with their cars on here and grandamgt.com, good deals are pretty common when people are trying to get rid of stuff.

Welcome to the forums.
With the oil light on, it might be a good idea to give it an oil change unless your dad did that recently. Otherwise, change that oil and the filter.

Hey Guys!
I recently got a oil change, now the light's off . I also changed my AIR FILTER, EWW! previous air filter was damn nasty!
Now.. where shall i start with the car?
I took off all hub caps because it looked weird with only two.

Okay- welcome to the forums! I now don't feel so alone being only 17! lol, but anyhow-
Get some rims or at least (for now) some matching hubs
Then- Clear the corners.. there is a GREAT tutorial on how to do it on this site, its easy to do even if you know nothing about the car... trust me...
Those little appearance mods will help make the car look nice, and (with the corners) a bit custom.
Then, maybe start on the interior, add accent lighting, get that new paint job if you want, but Alero's look sweet in that silver color too.
Bottom line is- get it running sweet- then make it your own! just my $.02
