2000 2dr...with much to come...

[BoarderTy]

I have been cruising around the forums for a while now and i have posted a few times and that and sadly to say i havent had much time to do anything much to the car except for a few interior lights, WAI, (soon to be CAI), and normal maintenence. Most recent is a wash, wax, and a brake change.

2000 2 door Alero 2.4L with 145,000mi. and LOTS OF POTENTIAL! :p




Thank you Armor All!

Whys that funny?:coolio:

[lord2heart]

well, is it boosted?

[jhubbz]

Tint tails, tint windows, those rims look similar to mine so you can get an idea, clear corners and paint bezels, also is your hood paint peeling or am i going crazy? I'm not trying to troll, but check out some of the zaino products, they are amazing!

[BoarderTy]

[BoarderTy]

to tint the tails get some VHT nightshade, take out your tail lights, clean them thoroughly, then spray on the nightshade, allowing a couple minutes to dry between coats, until it's as dark as you like. avoid water, car washes, and dirt roads for about a day afterwards as the coating cures.

[Vic28]

I like black coupes.. looks clean, take the ugly plate frame. Put them wheels and lower it;)

I believe it was about 5 coats, but sorry no in action pictures.

Another option is you could sand off all the clear, wet sand the top coat of paint, then re clear the hood, and wet sand that when it dries, and probably do a quick pass with a buffer to make it nice and shiny.

problem is i dont have access to all the necessary tools...

[Ttop191]

hold up, how deep are you looking to go on the tails?

1 coat= grand am tail light color

2 coats= deep deep red

3 coats= pure black, the tails in my avatar were 3 coat

[scott192]

well this is 3 coats im just playin with how dark i want it and i think 3 is the key! just wash them very good and make sure your not in a dusty area at all even a bit of lint flying around will look like ass when its done

What do you have "waiting to be installed" if I may ask? Last I remember you said you couldn't afford my rims for 300 shipped.

[Lucalare]

well then unfortunately you'd have to pay someone to do it, but it probably won't hurt as much as a complete repaint would.

FYI i never sold my Cavy so i am going to be taking the supercharger out of that and putting it into my Alero.

Cool. But why would you have a turbo badge if its supercharged :rolleyes2:

[BoarderTy]

because my ex gf didnt understand the difference between supercharged and turbocharged, even showed her pics and everything and she got me that for my bday last year so i put it on there for her basically.

[BoarderTy]

Well besides the ripping on me. glad to see that the site has a sense of humor

[alero_bmxer]

Check the Rules section. Sense of Humor is strictly forbidden and subject to being banned.

Unless you're lying about having a power adder and then play it off later that you're joking. Then Humor is perfectly acceptable.

Now get them rims mounted and finish boosting that thing so you can live up to the over-badging. Meanwhile, I'm going to go put a 6.0 badge on mine.

[jhubbz]

Dang son, you just got turbowned

[BoarderTy]

Just for the record so this all gets cleared up.
i have my SUPERCHARGER waiting to be installed.

and yes...i have a turbo badge on my car that doesnt belong...

[jhubbz]

I had to thread revive this due to humor. How's the supercharging coming anyways?
