Dude who's that? I want a billet cap too, need more honeys :P

[Pimpalero03]

i already put up a how to before when i first got it like a month ago. if you want, just instant message me or pm me and ill give you in depth directions on how to. the whole process took me about 3 hours, but now that i know how to do it, it shouldnt take you as long.

[StealthAlero]

pm me the directions please. My gas cap is kinda broken as in it wont shut all the way and i wanna get a new one, so i'm gonna go this route.

[boarder211]

Is anyone thinking of installing it on a silver Alero? I wouldn't mind one, but not too sure how it would look...

[keytonic]

Anyone know if the ones on the Eclipses would fit?

[j{}n]

haha, i'm just a dumbass who rode bald tires in the snow and slid into a guardrail and bent my gas door inwards

[johny_boy32]

^lol^ thats prolly not the way to do things...lol

[j{}n]

nah, so i got some monster truck tires. i ride like, two inches higher now, and the tires rub a lil

[RV99]

Why don't you just post the step by step directions here again and this way you wouldn't have to pm half the board the same info over and over.

Can't the even make it a how to link...

[Pimpalero03]

i already did post a how to somewhere

Actually, Paul, you posted a half-assed how to, and told people to PM you if they wanted more info.

[Maverick]

[Pimpalero03]

well.... i gave the basic how to. go buy and figure it out. you have the guide lines. if i made a step by step it would be 5 pages long.

[sound_xtreme]

lazy ass. look at my clear headlight thread.

[OpalaAlero]

Personally I don't see why he would give a step by step How-To on how to rip off one of his ideas.

[Pimpalero03]

that is true. ^^ i dont wanna see a bunch of aleros with them. but im sure most wont go through what it takes to do it all. its not just a take off and put on kinda thing. most people just buy simple bolt ons and dont have a clue how to real modifying. when it requires modifying, cutting, filing, removing most dont do it.

[OpalaAlero]

Just backin you up bro :thumbsup:

[sound_xtreme]

not like he was the first to do it anyways. American Girl had it waaaay before him

[dopey]

haha this thread if funny. pimp knows he wasnt the first to do this "mod"

but all the other dinks on here never have a clue as to whats really goin on in the awsome world or alero modding...... so it takes them awhile to catch up.

besides i dont really understand why most of u want to put this thing on ur car anyways....... ur gonna be driving a stockbox with a billit gas door. AWSOME!!! :thumbsup:


and opala...... u think people are ripping off his ideas????? haha thats funny..... seeings as how u jsut paid for a set of clear corners..... thats one of the most ripped off ideas ever. so ur jackin someones style also u tool.

[Pimpalero03]

yeah you shouldnt have paid to clear corner man. its so easy. and american girls isnt like mine but hers is bad ass. there is another alero on here with one same as mine but he doesnt seem to be on here anymore. he had it on a bone stock red alero and it didnt look to good to be honest... i think u need a darker car or sliver. and more to the car. aka body kit tint ect.. ill look around for his pic to show u all

[OpalaAlero]

All I said is that I understand if he wouldn't want to give a how-to. And clearing corners is something you do to make it look better, basically everyone has done it.

And whats with the insult? You seem like a very angry man, maybe therapy could help you sort out your confidence problems. And your obviously self concious if you have to come on this site and constantly rip on people.

[dopey]

aleromi did this a number of months ago. mustang billet gas door. made numerous posts about it on the old site.

Haha!!!! :lol: :lol:
Has to be one of the best lines yet!! Watcha think Brent?

As far as the gas door, eh, it's OK, not worth the effort in my mind.

3.4 i love comments like that directed towards me. i like to see people stand up for themselves.

at the same time the comment doesnt bother me....... its just that it comes across the wrong way 50% of the time... since its the internet and most people dont know where im coming from to begin with.

so its good to see him fight back..... but at the same time...... it doesnt mean im gonna stop being me.... ;)

[frozenchickendinner]

......ooooohhhh.....skitty ma rinky dinky dink, skitty ma rinky dooo......

[dopey]

lol....... omg that histarical

[StealthAlero]

:lol: I thought this was a car forum, not a comedy club. You guys are hilarious. But i wanna do this because some punk kid i guess was playing with mine and now it doesn't shut all the way. I might buy another stock one, but haven't decided yet. $60 bucks is pretty cheap so i might do it. But as for the rest of the comments, i'm gonna stay out of it and let sweet do his thang. :thumbsup:

[sound_xtreme]

i got a new gas door for free from the local junk yard. it was even painted the same color as my car.......er........the same color my car used to be. lol

[StealthAlero]

Yeah well we only have one junk yard here and you can't rumage through it and there aren't many aleros, so i'm stuck with purchasing over the internet.

[j{}n]

this "mod" is easy if you have a dremel. excluding battery chargings, this took me about half an hour. i like the aluminum look, it accentuates the scratches on the side of my car. and it pisses brent off

Yeah thats my red Alero. My digi cam sucks, my car looks kinda orange when I take pictures of it. The door does look good on it I think, I guess you just have to see it in person or I have to get a better camera lol. I planned on getting it tinted in the spring and SLP exhaust but I recently had some problems with my car that I'm kinda pissed off about so I wont be modding it anymore, all I have is indiglo's, cf bezel and painted calipers. When I finish school next year I'm probably gonna trade it in for a SRT-4.

[Pimpalero03]

well hey how did u put urs on.. on wonder if we did it the same way. post the pic too to show what it looks like on ur car

[K Dan]

http://members.aol.com/BigHit8810/door.jpg

PimpAlero, what did u use to screw it on? I bought my door from Steeda and it only came with 2 screws (and a couple fake screws just for looks I guess). I went down to a Ford dealer and the guy at the parts department said they didn't have any screws like it but had a Hub repair kit that had screws that looked kinda like it, only thing was I had to buy the whole thing which came with like 20 screws which I ended up doin. Install is a breeze, take out the 2 bolts holding the stock door on, cut off the lip on that black thing, grind out some of the area between the 2 stock holes, install the door so it's lined up, drill all the nessescary holes and your good to go.

[Pimpalero03]

that is basically waht i did.. but mine came with two screws that go right where the screws from the old gas tank went in. so i used them. the rest are for show like u said. fake screws

haha..... doesnt piss me off. just looks really dumb on a stock box...... ^^^^ exhibit A ur honor

[frozenchickendinner]

this gas door thing must be pretty damn easy if all these people are doing it to stock rides. I wanna see some good close up shots, i wanna see how it sits on the body, ect.

[Green Eyed Monster]

MAN this is some good stuff.....LMAO!!!!! :popcorn:

[K Dan]

Well I might not have the Stage 1 supporting mods to run a fuel door but I like it :P

[j{}n]

i now run 12.3 second 1/4 miles with this mod

[dopey]

^^^ lol thats priceless

[jonez]

/\/\
wanna see that time slip

[Pimpalero03]

oh yeah. gas cap adds so much power.... decals to man, each checker is one hp. im pushin so much.lol

[Green Eyed Monster]

LOL X 10



:popcorn:

[redfox]

you telling me you guys didn't have to grind any of the mustang door down. This damn thing is pissing me off :pissed: , been working for like forever, I gave up for the day. any help would be appreciated. I have a grand am by the way

[j{}n]

i took the dremel to where the two main bolts are, and grinded it down. guess and check. as i said before, with a dremel it took me about half an hour

[Pimpalero03]

yeah i grinded mine down too

[j{}n]

here's the requested time slip.

run #1 i took a wrong turn and got a bit lost

run #2 i got my bearings straight, and made a decent run

run #3 was after the gas cap install, it was a noticeable boost. i found that if you only tighten the gas cap 1/2 way, you get more air into the tank, forcing it into the engine, making you go faster

[K Dan]

BS! wheres your ET's and 60' times LOL
