Its a 97 sl2. I have a short ram intake on it for now, im gonna be redoing the exhaust on it not sure on when, i am gonna lower it also and maybe turbo charge it but thats not gonna happen till wayyyyyyyyy later on. It's pretty zippy deffinatly wouldn't think a saturn is quick. I love it i put alot of work into it so far by fixing it up to how it runs now. it was a total junk heap when i first got it, now it runs like new :bigwink:

i used black paint and cleared it. DO NOT spray it on thick, if you put it on thick the light wont shine threw.

So what, you just used regular black paint, and then clear coat? is it on the inside or outside of the light cover?

Good Luck dude, I like the IS300 wheels on it....And Saturns have small motors....Ecspecially the VUE.

nice skills on the headlights, but i would have lightly smoked them as opposed to blacking them out, the whole blackout thing is so 1992. whatever floats your boat

If you only knew, and the Vue's has 3 diffrent types of engines, the 2.2 eco tech also in the cobalt and other GM cars, the 3.0 V6 L81, and the 3.5 L66 V6...

The last pictures looks like the tag is going into a black hole of tickets, am I right. You dont get tickets much, do you?

Also, instead of using spray paint for your headlights, you should have tried some VHT tint spray, it looks really nice for the tail lights, but I dont like headlights being dark, I just dont like them.

SNOWBOI!! come on man.... he edited it in photoshop so you couldnt read his plate! its not like that in real life...

the VHT spray sucks, hands down. i have 2 cans here that i paid $35 for (shipped) and it runs very easily, it leaves tons of texture yielding lots of work sanding, and you still have to clear the stuff. the 2 best options are tinted vinyl (easily removable and looks pro) or spraying them with black kandy.

It's not like the hundreds of other people in real life who see the car every day can't steal the plate numbers...

Only reason I ever do it is if I'm doing something stupid in said pics. Insurance companies have gotten sneeky over the years and watch sites and race tracks for their customers cars. :evil:
