ok this site http://www.buy-oem-parts.com/storefront.htm
has all OEM stuff, and they have emblems for the TGP'd and other stuff, they even have a valence panel for the 89-90 Grand prix w/ Turbo. i thought u might wanna know they have all kinds of stuff for our cars on here!

Only "emblems" I found were the "bumper" emblems = likely the Pontiac Arrowheads. :wink: I did see that they list the turbo and intercooler, but I wonder if they actually have any of our intercoolers and other parts on hand.

i dunno, make jeff could check it out, lol

oh and in front door, exterior trim, name plate, i think those are it! hey have STE Turbo and Turbo Grand Prix, arnt name plates the emblems?!

and they have Manifolds for the 3.1 turbo

they also have PMIII relays for $230, i think the others are like 300$ right?

Yea, that is indeed the TGP valence and bumper cover. The illustrations show it to be a bit more square, but I think that's how they were intended to look.
Though their prices aren't that discounted. They still want $1100 for a hood, and GM's list price is $1400.
Thanks for the link.. I think I may consider them when I have the car redone here soon. A new bumper cover and valence may be in order, this way the car actually looks proper again. :D

what happend to ur valence? according to ur pics, u have one, but when u buy a valence, dont u need the brakets also, and supports?

LukeZ34 · January 16, 2005, 01:31:44 PM

Oh it's there, but it's cracking in the center, and it sagging pretty badly. The bumper is warped along the bottom where the valence mounts (pushing the valence down) and also under the headlights (warping upwards).
Yea, they also have the brackets for the valence, so I'd have to get those too.

hey, they also have the louvers for the hood, and the crosslaces, i think even the HUD, u go to windsheild, and glass, then it says w/o HUD 171$ w/HUD 400$ so mabye it comes with it??

No, the windwhield wouldn't come with the HUD. The windshield glass has a different part # for a car w/ HUD and w/o. The more reflective ones were assigned the HUD ones and a few hundred $$ more. I don't think it matters much though, I put a HUD in my car with the regular windshield and it works fine. A little dim in sunlight though. But I drove some new GP's and Bonne's this summer with the factory HUD, and theirs did the same.

I found the following.

-Accumulator - $124
-ABS pressure switch - $67.06

What's GMpartsdirect list the Accumulator for at the moment?

Also, found a TGP shortblock on that site...it listed for nearly $1700. :shock:

Prospeeder · January 16, 2005, 09:31:41 PM

is that good or bad? for $1700, whats it mean shortblock? like the whole motor?

acumulator is 289$ where are u seeing 124$

EDIT: STRANG! in collision parts, Accumulator is 289$< but in mechanical catalog, its 124$ crazy!

also xover pipe for 3.1, 280$< but not for turbo......whats the difference?

PMIII Resivore 50$

Go to the "mechanical parts" catalog(the one where you enter year/model on the right side column instead of left on the first page), then go to Brakes, followed by ABS/Anti-lock, then Accumulator...it's $124.11. :wink:

Their shortblock includes "Block, Conn Rod, Pistons, Camshaft Bearings, Crankshaft & Bearings."

You can likely rebuild your entire motor w/ $1700 + do a few extra things to it vs. buying their shortblock..

idbeast · January 17, 2005, 09:53:04 AM

As I remember, they list all the parts, but when they don't have it you have to deal with getting your money back.

Yeah I bought a whole rebuild kit, all the gaskets, upgraded to a 2020 cam, honing and had the cylinder heads totally redone for less than $1300. But I assembled it and if someone else did it, say at the machine shop, they'd charge the remainder I am sure.

Prospeeder · January 22, 2005, 12:03:24 AM

hay, if u get the valence for the actual TGP's, (wich i think look ALOT better, nice and square, instead of goofy and round) all the mounting stuff that was broken, i just unbolt that, and put the new ones on, and is there a way we can reinforce it, so it wont be so prone to breaking again?

TurboGTU · January 22, 2005, 01:14:16 AM

Is 255 good for a headliner?
