[dragon8807]

Decided to take some new pics of my car today since I got some rims over Thanksgiving. They are 18x8 BSA Racing 187 with 235/40/18 Cooper Zeon ZPTs.

I've replaced the worn out stock plugs and wires with NGK Laser Platinum plugs and Taylor 8.2mm blue wires and my front STB.

rims look good man keep it up

[kwhauck]

car is looking good, you need to lower that thing though.....

[darksobsession]

i love the color of the car!

[dragon8807]

i know it needs lowered but that's not in my budget right now.

[01OldsAleroGt]

the tips are nice.. and the rims look great.. perfect as is for now....
what is the inlet size of the tips ?

once i get my exhaust im changing out the twin tips on the Pacesetter to Single Oval Tips

[dragon8807]

the tips are 2.5" inlet and 4" outlet

[01OldsAleroGt]

damn.. where can i grab some 2.5" inlet tips like that.. im trying to go for a nice oval tip out the rear.. i think it'll flow nicer with the stock body looks

[dragon8807]

i got them at advance auto cheap, they were $2 a piece i think they were about $20-$30 originally.

[redde44]

Hey nice car, where did yiu get your front and rear strut bars from?

[circeansleeper]

Is your steering wheel peeling or is that hand grease?

[GM_2.4]

Hey man think your car looks nice with them rims

[Alero_1986]

looks good. Strange time a year for new rims though.

...it's time for some winter steelies :)

[dragon8807]

Hey nice car, where did yiu get your front and rear strut bars from?
ebay, paid $69 shipped for both, there for a grand am but it's the same thing as an alero

Is your steering wheel peeling or is that hand grease?
the leather is dirty and has a hole so i'm eventually going to get one of these and recover it Wheelskins Leather Steering Wheel Cover (http://www.pfyc.com/pc/GN2001/ALINT/Wheelskins+Leather+Steering+Wheel+Covers.html)

looks good. Strange time a year for new rims though.

...it's time for some winter steelies :)

i know it's a weird time for rims
don't have any winter steelies, just the stock 16s and these 18s

[TheEdgeofSanity]

[darksobsession]

lolololololololololololololololol

[bizarre179]

Looks good, the only thing i dont like is the amp wire. Besides that, i like.

[DansGen1Alero]

yes needs to be lowered, you want to buy a razzi rear end to make that cutout look cleaner?

You can get those type of tips at pep boys too, thats where i got mine

Dragon, fix your power cable I see it coming around the firewall instead of thru, could cause problems down the road like smashing the wire or even peeling off insulation. Other than that car looks good, keep it up!

Sorry didnt see the prior posts about the wire, lol

[dragon8807]

i wasn't going to keep the power wire routed like it is but i did and i will fix it as soon as it gets warm which won't be til spring cause i don't have a garage.

[whiterider00]

are you selling one? i might be interested.

[Alero_1986]

How do you like the laser platinum plugs? did they show any change at all? Those cost more than the Iridiums don't they?

[dragon8807]

i like em, they're better than the worn out stockers. the laser platinum's were $8.39 a piece and iridium's were $9.69 at summit racing

[DansGen1Alero]

Yes I actually have a full Razzi, and I have an additional rear section. The rear section was pop rivited on my car so that i could line up for the exhaust, and then it was cheaper to buy the whole kit over then to get the front and sides, thats why i have 2. The holes where the rivets were are small and would need to be filled (for a charge i could do)

[shonky_alero]

I seen this in monroeville yesterday

[dragon8807]

[natedawg9640]

[dragon8807]

[shonky_alero]

whats the deal with the power wire for the amp?thats not safe man i had a friend that ran his like that in his ga it burnt to the ground literly:cry: :( other than that the 2 windows tinted looks goofy but other than that car looks awsome.

[elpuas3000]

dragon8807 I THINK YOU SHOULD RUN THE AMP WIRE THROUGH THE LITTLE HOLE. JUST FOLLOW THE LITLLE WIRES THAT ARE COMING OUT FROM THE FUSE BOX AND YOU WILL SEE THE HOLE. OKAY...

ran out of time when installing my subs cause it started to rain so i ran the power wire like that, it was only supposed to be a temporary thing but i haven't had much time to fix it cause i work a lot. it will get routed correctly once it gets warm out since i don't have a garage. i know it looks weird with only 2 windows tinted but i will get them tinted professionally when i have the money to do so, cause i had so much trouble trying to do the fronts like the tint kept creasing and sticking to it self so i gave up and left the back 2 tinted.

[shonky_alero]

yea it was ntb when it gets warm out we should meet up sometime me and a couple of my buddies meet up with some people from j-body down by the heinz field then we just cruise around if your down ill let you know when.
