The color would be Satin Blue Pearl - that was the color of my 2K Max before I traded it for my 2K3.

Most **** talking is between the VA guys....more like poking fun. We still flame noobs (kinda miss that I haven't had the chance in a while)

VA guys? What, did you forget about us MD guys?


Puppetmaster is , Irish uses duct tape to hold his roof rack on, Soonerfan likes little boys, and the other 5,000 Jasons in Fairfax are idiots! ...just to set the record straight...


back on topic: Nice car! Now you need to lower it, tint it, put on clear corners, a front lip, side skirts, rims, a rear lip, FSTP, intake, timing advance, headers, cams, bigger injectors, cat-back exhaust, VB mod, RSB, nitros, and a clear bra and your set! Don't worry, it'll only set you back around another 20-25k or so.

speaking of flaming (FSTP) Front strut tower par? lol...anyway what going on it are..lowering springs (illumna/progress?); titanium tint, definitley clear corners but only for front (i like the red ones in back), absolutley no body altering (maybe except for a nice grill); no intake (cops dont like that here); headers (yes); no cams, no injectors; catback is a maybe, Valve Body mod (i need to check the how to's on that one), RSB fo sho (maybe even a lower tie bar if the 5th gens have one); no nitros, and no clear bra...also im putting a soundsplinter 15" in there...with cdt audio components all around; followed by an eclipse (double din tv/dvd); with 2 hifonics amps; also im putting in these certain aftermarket foglights that fit perfectly in the stock hole; a mesh grill on top and bottom; heated CLOTH seats...i cant stand leather too much (or even vinyl in that matter); and that about sums it up...i came up with all that in 1 day THX FOR ALL THE COMMENTS

Error 404 - Anniversary Edition not found.

WTF is a GXE Anniversary Edition?


Anyway, welcome to the forum....go read up on some stickies because this is definitely not the 4th gen forum.
