Decals my sign maker brother made me

might want to wash your car next time... lol thats one dirty g5

If your car stays that dirty after a wash, it's time to consider some serious detailing. But neat post none the less.

looks like those grill inserts are just over top of the black honeycombs?

like the g5 badge though

p.s. please hand wash your car. pressurewasher is just wrong haha

 

[kyboymatt]

looks like its time to take out the mitt, a bucket, some carwash and sinking some hours into detailing.

You have to drive through dirt often? certainly looks like it bro. Personally id be a crazy man, I already am about bugs! the bane of my existence!


But cool stuff none the less. Love to see people doing different things.

If I could get those chrome grill inserts for a G5, I'd get black in a heartbeat. That's the only reason I don't want black, it's hard to see the fantastic pontiac grille!

I like the idea of modding the grille but don't like the result

what could look like would be a chrome contour like on the G6's

or just nice mesh like on the GXP

I think it would look really good, and I'm somewhat disapointed the G5's didn't come with them

A recessed grill would look sweet.

Too bad there are none... :evil:

I work at a John Deere Dealer so i get free use of the pressure washer, problem is the boiler is broke so it's just a cold water rinse

 

[th0ughtless]

Looks nice, besides bein' dirty

That grille looks neat. Is that mod very costly?
I like the G5 decal on the side, but it should be a lil bigger

 

[lorneh1234]

the grille was $200 and i got it from the dealership.

as for the decal my brother-in-law and I designed it quickly one night after work so it wasn't a perfectly designed image size wise

 

[Nighthawk243]

The reason why it looks awful is that the pressure washer leaves alot of mineral deposits. I know when I use mine, If I neglect to actually wash the car, it is literally turned stone grey from the minerals :shock:

I usually use the pressure washer to get the large stuff off (Such as bird droppings or large bug splatters), and then I go and do the regular wash with the Mr Clean carwash (The spot free rinse works pretty decently for a black car). I also break out the Claybar, wax, and Scratch X as needed.

Yeah, the Grills from the Dealership are a dry ream.

The black stock one is over 100 bucks.

Looking at the companies site it would have costed me the same amount from them...

^they have some nice stuff

fucking expensive though

 

[th0ughtless]

Damn, thats a pretty crazy price.

 

[lorneh1234]

problem was i couldn't find anyone else that had them for our cars, and i wanted something more then the black grille since i first looked at that car

 

[th0ughtless]

It does look better on a black car. I kinda like the black grilles on my silver G5. I'm going to wait till they come out with some more stuff for cars

 

[lorneh1234]

i agree that only a black car can pull off the grille, one thing i found odd/funny was they have the grille for the 06 pursuit cheaper than the 07 G5 yet it is the same grille (i have the 06 grille on an 07)
