A few pics of my Pearl White MS3...

[Smokehouse]

Sorry...mediocre pics. It's cold as hell outside right now, the car is wet and the f'ing sun goes down at 4:45 PM so this is all I have for the moment...

99% bone stock for now fellas...

*EDIT*

Yes...I know the dealer sticker is still on there....it will be coming off as soon as it's warmer...



*EDIT-2*

Did a little PS work on the first pic...added a little bit of "nasty" to it.

i always tell the sales guy... you can put a tag frame with the dealer name, but it comes out of the detail and you hand me the keys, i'm not taking it if it has a dealer badge on the paint...

hate those things... always poorly designed, then usually put on the car crooked...

Make the dealer take their sticker off. They have a device that does it easily without any damage.

Only other thing I'd do (which I have) is remove the front license plate. You'll be left with 2 holes in the black panel of course. If you care enough, you can get a replacement from the dealer for $40. Sort of just pops in there. I say sort of because there are 3 actual screws in the middle of it (something they didn't tell me of course) that make it a bit difficult to get off. In the end though, it's well worth it. Hate front license plates with a passion. And don't talk to me about getting tix or any of that nonsense. I drove an orange MSP around for close to 6 years in a state where it is indeed illegal. Hey, rolling through stop signs and driving over the speed limit is illegal too!

Nice ride though... Almost got a white one but had my heart set on a silver. LED tails are literally the only reason I'd want a GT. In the end, it wasn't worth spending an extra 2 grand for some damn tail lights.

lookin' good man, did you tint the passenger windows and not the drivers? haha the first pic looks tinted and the 2nd looks bare, nice car man!

yep... illegal here (TX), but i'm not putting it on mine... or i'm getting a towplate kind of set-up... i doubt i get hassled too much about it... DPS guys (state highway patrol) are the only ones who care that much... and besides, they don't hassle the older guys that much, just you young'uns and yer fancy wheels and such. (silly)

In illinois the state cops don't mess around with the front license plate thing...they will pull you over. I was heavy active in the GTO community and I can't count the guys who got busted for not having one. The also don't mess around with having your front windows tinted either...they will ticket you on that one. My neighbor has an '05 GTO, he removed the license bracket, professionally fixed the bumper...and got busted and ticketed three times last summer, he finally replaced the plate. He also had his side windows tinted and also got busted and ticketed.

Anymore Illinois cops are on the rampage with tickets...

No tint yet but it's coming, I can't stand having a car without tinted windows. I'll get it done this spring.

Welcome to the forums, I love the way the CWP looks on this car, that was my decision maker. After I saw the car in person in that color I knew I had to have it lol.

Hard to believe it's that bad. Then again, looking at how corrupt your Governor is anything is possible. (j/k) So if I lived there... I'd probably just throw my plate up on the dash. Here in CT anyway... that's legal.
