Yo guys any ideas for the taillights of an Alero. I don't like the look of the stock ones. Anyone got pictures of things they have done to theirs? Tinting? Vinyl What?

pawzbear 10-15-2005 05:26 PM

i say blech to messing with our tails. it really is what sets our cars apart..
Buuuut i see you have a white car? If you do anything to them, go with tint, i am sure there is a howto around. Darken them a bit, and with window tint and maybe black bezels on the front.. that would be sweet.

AlbinoMonkeyRat 10-15-2005 05:31 PM

tint is a decent idea. ;)

Orion 10-15-2005 05:33 PM

Got any pictures ?

-Alero- 10-16-2005 12:42 AM

i got an idea.......

shave your trunk, and put 05 GTO tailights in. ( slight modification though)

AftermathAlero 10-16-2005 12:51 AM

its not bolt on.. he won't do it!

Orion 10-16-2005 12:58 AM

Hey come on now give me some credit lol. But yeah I am a college student, can't afford to shave it and then repaint it lol

forbidden 10-16-2005 11:40 AM

Shave it or leave it alone....

Someone needs slight modification to their skull.

there is a white alero with tinted tails on here...but I forget her name off-hand.

pawzbear 10-16-2005 02:13 PM

i strongly dislike shaved tails.. icky. If i wanted a neon i would have bought one. but keeping the full tails would look especially nice on the white.. the contrast of the red (or the dark tint) is especially flattering.
just my opinion. And he is a college student, and if he is anything like me he is flat broke so shaving and bodywork isnt an option.
Tinting would provide the classiest looks, and still stand out.

im a college student and look at my alero.

but ya, shave em all or stock.

Justy311 10-16-2005 06:19 PM

IMO, tinting looks great, I just did mine on a black alero, and it looks awesome. I'm personally not a fan of the shaved look, reminds me of those caddies with huge trunks...looks like poo. I say do what you want, if it looks good go with it. Tinting will look pretty good, good luck with it!

Orion 10-16-2005 07:39 PM

Thanks for the advise guys, I am going to tint them sometime soon. College students are poor, well atleast most.

yup more or less grinding down some of the metal and using filler, in places needed.

i figured you would of known that but o well.

Kurt Zee 10-17-2005 06:36 PM

i know not a lot of people here like this, but pinstripes are anothger option for ya! i did them and they look rather good to me. i'm thinking about redoing them in black stripes tho......here's a pic of mine......

Kurt Zee 10-17-2005 06:38 PM

turbo alero are you trying to be rude? Not everyone is lucky to have your kind of money. Some of us do pay several thousands of dollars a year for schooling.(Most College Students)

ive got like 50k in loans and i still got my poop done up. get a job fool, a good one. learn to sell yourself.

Oldsmopimp 10-17-2005 08:09 PM

I vote lets turn this thread into a brawl!!!!!!!!!!!! F*ck ya!!!! :party: :gun:

Orion 10-18-2005 12:50 PM

I am not in debt at all, I would rather be "no in debt" and have an alero with a few mods. Then in debt 50 k with tons of mods done to my Alero. Later on in life when your paying off college loans I will be enjoying the money I earn. :)

pawzbear 10-18-2005 02:31 PM

^ exactly.
I wouldnt put myself in debt to fix up my cute lil eco car.
I have things that come first.
I have a job too, been at the same place for about 3 years...which is good for someone my age.
There are priorities in life, and having a car that impresses middle school girls is not one of them.

i know, it is the high school girls that count..... :heehee: :thumb: :beerchug:

Orion 10-18-2005 04:02 PM

hahahah :P

cherrington17 10-18-2005 04:02 PM

theres a good chance that i'll have more debt then the lot of ya, but i'm not modding mine till i'm out. i can't possibly work and do the work load i have.... sry other college guys, it depends on the type of work your doing in school, not the fact that your there...

pawzbear 10-18-2005 04:12 PM

yes a lot of engineering majors have problems with coordinating jobs with school here.. I am fine for now, i am lucky to have a great flexible job that pays well and gives me good hours.
For now i do cheap little things to my car.. like clear corners, paint int. (soon to begin..) and things that really matter to me like good speakers (Alpine) and my Sony cd changer... maybe subs in the works, i have been shopping around and doing research.. only all this cuz my dad will install if for free for me, of course, so its all that more affordable.
Maybe i will get some big nice things after i sell my horse.. but i have other things to pay off that are PRIORITY. hah.

SweetNLow 10-18-2005 04:33 PM

those pin stripped tail are uhh........... interesting.

i think doin anyting to the tails is a bad i deal in general. our tails are very unique as is. all tails taht ive seen look like crap imo.......... all ur really doin is ricin ur car out that much more

im interested in the horse........... how many horsepower is it? manual or auto? are euro tails available for it?

Kurt Zee 10-18-2005 05:51 PM

i'm pretty sure she was talking about her "REAL" horse.....so that makes a have 1 horse power, hopefully its a manual....and unless their different in Europe....its probably a standard looking tail!!

:P

SweetNLow 10-18-2005 08:13 PM

pawzbear 10-18-2005 10:56 PM
