when i first got it in the maie cuz i was a little shocked that it wasn't black like everyone elses. i just thought it was black stock. but apparently not, or there were options and this is the one i got.?!? thank you EAS for sending it with a quickness. I'm planning on chroming the whole thing out anyway... tryna picture it, but we'll see. everyone in vegas that i've asked is bitching cuz its plastic. but i'll find someone. so one less from my to do list. which consist of EVERYTHING.:dance:

quick question... i know someone has to know, if i got the window controllers from the AE, with its one touch window down thing for the passenger side, what would i needa do to make that work in my 99?
and.... does anyone or has anyone done a cluster upgrade kinda thing. just to make it look more modern? like the new TLs? (that would be sick) or is bulb upgrades the way to go...?

i know you guys may bag cuz im doing baby steps, but function first right? thats why most of us got rid of our 240s and civics. For luxury. Any help will do. criticism always welcomed. :saiyancrunks:

They're not black on anyone's unless they painted it black. It's a dark grey from the factory, I like it that way, and I like the GT badge =) , but either way, great 1st step! The GT grille was my 1st mod too, way back in the summer of '04, seems like ages ago, but in reality not that long ago.

Wasn't it cool how easy to change it is? Like 8 nuts, and bam, 5 minutes later your car looks like a different car!

HELL YEA!!!
That's why each week I would switch out 1 of my 3 grill too change the look from week to week! Right now I'm stuck on my stock grill cause it makes the car look more luxurious but the my GT grill is pretty gangster! Jus needs to be repainted and cleaned up!
