Hey guys just bought an 02 alero gx sedan. It has a neon green tribal graphic on the side of it and im trying to to decide whether to keep the graphic or take it off. Also has a pretty huge wing on the back not sure of the make, kinda like the spoiler but im not sure of the graphic. opinions would be appreciated.http://i601.photobucket.com/albums/tt96/20alero02/alero.jpg

what engine? any rust?

the graphic has to go... the spoiler... eh... it would only (and still a very big maybe) fit if you got the AAS body kit.

but it depends on the image you want your car to have.

Pretty decent car for the money. You should have bought mine for 2000 bucks and saved yourself the trouble of having to remove the wing and graphics, I would have done it for ya. LMAO

My first car was a 1992 corolla. Sold it to some good lookin' girl for $500. Bought my Alero the very next day. She is a nice car. :)

I don't mind the style of the vinyl too much. If it were not neon green it would be better. Like gray or silver would have been a lot better.

I would ditch it though.

have to agree, lose the wing, and stickers and since nobody said it yet, CLEAR YOUR CORNERS! lol not a bad price i paid 2000 above that for an 02 gx...

And P.S.
Send me the wing if and when you take it off

Take the wing off until you put a kit on it

lose that thing on the side

20alero02
09-27-2009, 09:35 AM
found a stock spoiler im buying as long as it doesnt fall through. planning on clearing the corners and taking the vinyl off as soon as it stops raining lol

wings gotta stay guys i cant afford a new trunk lid and the holes where the wing is mounted to are different from where the stock spoiler will mount so ill just work on getting a body kit for it so it wont look out of place.

^ as long as you can ditch the graphics...nobody is gonna fault you on the wing for a while. and 1700 is a decent deal for what you got. :)

good car for being in high school(i am 2 ).. but ditch that graphic and jus keep spoiler until u can get a body kit

IMO: search around in junkyards for that new trunk lid...even if you find one without the spoiler. Just having anything extra on a car in high school is just asking for trouble, even if you are a cool guy with no enemies. there's some real dicks out there....don't give them bait. (of course, it can wait until the budget catches up)

haha speak of which my last car was a 2000 sunfire gt and i was giving my friend a ride home so when i went to stop this asshole rear ended me did 3000 in damages just so the kid he had in his car could jump my friend. so pretty much im not going to worry about that it happens whether your cars junk or a work of art lol

Who cares what other people think on here?
If you like it, keep it.

But if you want my opinion,
Lose the wing, they are a little too bulky for the stock body.
The graphic would look much better if you based the theme of the car around it. Maybe a body kit, rims, paint your calipers green, etc etc

i plan on getting a body kit as soon as i have the money i have grand am mirrors on the way, i have a basic idea of what i want to do and as it is right now the wings going to stay. graphics a little too much for me though lol.

/\/\ Wtf!!!!

A man it's too easy :lol: so I'm not even going to bother. I'm sure enough people will make up for what I won't say

okay just 1: Were you auditioning for Fast and the furious "off road" when you decided to build your car? don't see many cars with a park bench and mud flaps

Eww..

*elaboration*

IMO, hood scoops on our cars, NEVER look good. (even functional ones) Functional ones serve purpose... those serve nothing... to anyone....ever.

rims don't flow with anything.
the flames don't make you quicker, just make people laugh faster
the chrome door lining only works on cars with other chrome accents (window lining doesn't count)
wing is attrocious


what theme are you going for with that? Just adding crap you can afford, with the leftovers of each paycheck?

First let me say welcome to the Site!

Now that, that is over with...let me say that you should take those off because they look bad. Second remove that chrome trim....I hate that stuff. Third the wing looks very bad, and the mud flaps.....well...take those off too. The hood scopes could work but it just looks like the car has had every discount item that autozone, pepboys, and advance sells. Please don't take criticism the wrong way but thats just my opinion.

Take off the wing and graphic, clear corners and paint bezel black, tint windows, polish the rims, slap on some GT side mirrors and your car will look nice.

The Spoiler is an invader wing if i'm not mistaken i have the same one. I like it so i would keep the wing and get a kit sometime. but really ditch the graphics.

Hell I would drive around with the holes in the trunk lid rather than have that thing on there.
