Re: New User

Being parked next to a fireplug might be some sort of violation :o . At least your calipers match the fireplug :D . I'm used to seeing red or just plain dingy calipers. Those look very nice!

Re: Proud new owner of a Caprice PPV!

What is your preferred color? Black shows dirt like crazy but looks sooo good when clean. White is nice too. Your paint job (black/white combo) is called "panda". What is the "real color"? In other words, what do the door jams, under hood and inside trunk look like? If I could pi...

Door sill plate (front) for 2013

I need one sill plate. I'm not sure if they're the same for 11-13 and 14+? Maybe they are.
Thanks!

Pontiac G8 Leather seats - fits 11-13 Caprice

I have a set of G8 Seats that will bolt in to a 11-13 Caprice. The connectors from the car side are included if you want to adapt the wiring. Alternatively, you can move the "skins" to your seats using your frame. These seats are in NW Indiana (think where Chicago meets Indiana). Please IM...

Re: Hesitation in downshifting when in sport mode

Re: New Member intro.

Adding to my previous post.. Sport mode is when you move the shifter from drive to the right. You move into manual mode if you bump shift up or down - which is pretty nifty. Once you do this, it seems you're forced into doing most of the shifting. I like sport mode - where the shifting is all done f...
