        I'd like if you took this into consideration what I'm about to say here. I mean this with respect for you and your build (not to be all emo). You have taken a car that not many others touch, made it look like no other Pontiac out there, and got everything to flow perfectly while doing it.

        WHY did you sticker bomb the back window and gas tank? The car looks dope man but don't take away from the cleanliness of it. I get that its trendy and some think it looks good but in this case, as in most recent cases, it just takes away from the cleanliness of the car.

        Instead of looking at it and saying "damn that thing looks bad as fuck" I looked at it and said "why the fuck did you put illest all over the gas tank". If you are friends with Mark from fatlace I understand and yes I'm pleased to see you repping SW but it still really retracts from the look and individuality of the car.

        Like I said i'm not trying to be emo just trying to reach out and make a point. I, along with alot of other people here, have been doing this shit for a long time so take it for what you want but you have a bad ass build going on there and it really could do without the gunk.

        With that said, hats off for being unique and building something truly cool.

          Looks super clean. Ditch the stickers and the yellow fogs and it's perfect

              I love it with a few exceptions. The yellow fogs don't match. If you want a yellow light, I would either do yellow bulbs or 3000k hids in a clear (preferably projector) lens. I think that would still give you the look you're going for but keep it cleaner when it's off (it's what I did). I'm not really mad about the sticker bomb thing, given you did it for pics only. I think the car is so damn clean, it doesn't need the stickers. i understand it cuz I did it last year for pix and will probably do it again in 11 for our team/gathering photoshoot. But I don't ride like that.

              All told, dopeness becomes you. ;-)

                never seen a g8 done and im glad you did. looks tite. sticker bomb is fine IMO, its not a shit ton of stickers of random shit so i think it works. liked the glossy black wheels better, maybe cause there was more stretch and lots of tire shine keep it uppppppp

This site was founded on freedom of automotive self expression and the passion that goes in to each and every build... This site is about doing what you like, whatever makes you happy, and not caring about what other people think...

                          Car looks fantastic, I do agree with the stickers though. I had some and took them all off, looks 30x better in my opinion.

                            I think the car looks great! I personally think those cars are quite underrated.

                            With that being said, in my opinion I think you should have gone with a more aggressive wheel size. I know you said these are a little less aggressive than you wanted...so why did you settle? If you have the room to run wider wheels with a killer offset, by all means DO IT!! Don't go with something less just to add spacers.

                            Nonetheless, car looks BA!
