This radio station was renamed Krenzy in honor of the last American hero to whom speed means freedom of the soul. The question is not when he's gonna stop, but who is gonna stop him.

I picked up a tan radio bezel and installed it in my TGP.

What do you guys think?  Should I keep it, or go back to charcoal?

This is the first interior picture I have ever taken of my TGP.. :icon_eek:

LOL the first thought that popped into my head was "FLAVA FLAV!!!!!!" LOL

I dunno, I personally would stick with my grey, but I also rockked a maroon bezel until my grey one came, so up to you bro.

I would stick with the charcoal since that tan isn't the exact color as the stock dash, etc.

I would stick with what you got. Its close, albeit not quite. At least it isnt a complete diferent color.

I took that using "color accent" mode on my Canon point and shoot(A620). I chose to accent the color gold, the rest of the picture is in black & white except any color close to gold(like the orange extention, the wood, etc. in the picture). I may actually take some decent pictures of the car tomorrow if I get a chance. If the red car was clean, I'd take group pictures...maybe I'll clean it real quick. It's covered in red dust from it being outside when I cut grass the other day. There are a few spots in my new yard where there's hardly any grass....instead, there's red dirt & patches of grass. That ends up creating a red dust cloud that will choke you out while mowing. :icon_redface: I have some fertilizer, grass seed, etc. to hopefully take care of that problem with. ;)

Some of my FAV pictures of the TGP

That tag is huge! :laugh: What's that decal/sticker on the side window by the way?

The license plate is the one I had on the car while I had it in Italy.

The small sticker is for the 503rd Infantry association (Army unit I was in at the time)

The bigger red one is for the Rocky Mountain Club Grand Prix (RMCGP) I am still a member but not active, the club has sort of gone down hill with some of its new members.

*Don't mind the dirtiness.* :laugh: There are about 100 of my greasy fingerprints all over my junkyard coolant bottle at the moment and the rest of the engine is really dirty as well. I'll spend a few hours on it soon and get it looking a lot better.

91-93 coolant bottle and my almost finished CAI that I modeled after "flybynite's."


Close-up of the intake. I'm still doing a bit of tweaking to it. The portion on the turbo is a crappy press bent 90* bend. I'm waiting on my 90* mandrel bend to get here to replace it with. After that, I'm going to try to turn the lower portion of the intake so that I can turn the filter straight forward and place it in the open area behind the valence. I might need to add a little more tubing to accomplish this....OR I'm considering modding the trans lines so that I can lift the filter up an inch or two where it currently sits. Right now, it's turned sidways facing to the passenger side of the car and it's pretty low to the ground(maybe a bit lower than the valence). I'll try to get some pictures underneath and measure my ground clearance tomorrow or either later this week.  The tubing is 2.5'' in size by the way. I plan to paint it black and I might end up wrapping it with some heat wrap too.


PS: I realize the turbo to IC pipe is not clamped on to the turbo. I was still working on it when I took the pictures.

My dirty black tgp...driveway is a bit dirty too. :icon_lol: I ran through some wet grass & mud in my '93 Grand Prix and got it all over my driveway. I pulled the TGP out to wash it after checking the weather and seeing that it was supposed to just be "partly cloudy." I was planning on taking some pictures of the car at a few random places around my house, but it started raining right before I got started washing the car. :icon_frown: I guess I'll wash it later this week & take some new pictures.
