What's up I'm new to this site so I thought I'd post some pictures of my Alero and see what people think!

Here's my CarDomain link if you just want to check it out there: http://www.cardomain.com/ride/3318460

Nice how wide are those wheels or the offset that lip looks huge

Oldsnut 08-09-2009 01:59 AM

Wow, Looks very clean.

What Pimp said with the offset?

Bruscomusco 08-09-2009 02:18 AM

Thanks for the compliments! Wheels size is 18x8.

yes but what offset? i have never seen an alero with rims that have that big of a lip

Bruscomusco 08-09-2009 11:26 AM

I'm not sure of the offset then.. And yes MP99 I've been looking at other Aleros with cleared corners and it does look nice. I'm just worried I wouldn't be able to put everything back together lol

AleroDrime 08-09-2009 01:33 PM

Dont use an open flame, or if you do be extremely carefull. I say this because I set my headlamps on fire.... :lol:

Bruscomusco 08-09-2009 03:48 PM

Haha thanks for the advice that would not be good.

I got a question for everyone. I'm going ot be in a show on the 29th and I want to do something to my car that will look impressive but not break the bank. I'm thinking a new exhaust or engine dress up? I got a budget of about 500 so what would be the 1st thing I should upgrade?

kwhauck 08-09-2009 05:01 PM

get a set of headers.....

AleroDrime 08-09-2009 10:39 PM

springs and struts or corvette disc brakes

Bruscomusco 08-10-2009 12:35 AM

Got Eibach, I could do headers, thanks. Is there any HP gain from new headers?

Get some paint for the engine, thats only a few $$ then do some intake and exhaust type stuff, itl make it sound good and look good, for a reasonable price too :thumb:
There is HP gain in any kind of engine upgrade.

AbHeLlRaZoR 08-10-2009 12:47 AM

yeah man do some small stuff, but intake and exaust is worth it I got may custom cat back on my car for about $475 CAD I don't know how much one would be worth at any of your local shops but it never hurts to call around and get quotes.

KenshinZero 08-10-2009 01:21 AM

I was quoted about $250-300 (USD) @ Midas, They installed my header and did a really good job. You could easily fab a cold air intake for little of no money, the most expensive part would probably be the filter.

AbHeLlRaZoR 08-10-2009 02:29 AM

most expensive part of my cat back was the muffler.

Bruscomusco 08-10-2009 03:02 AM

Cool cool thank you very much.
