My buddy use to have a monte carlo and told me about this forum so I thought I would come check it out. Anyone have some good ideas on what to do to make my car stand out. I have a 02 black monte carlo SS with light grey factory body kit. Hit me up with some ideas k guys. Thanks

hey welcome to the site

you could always look towards rims, tint the windows, do you have the ss spoiler?? or the flat one?? there's grill for the front end like mine, or black headlight units available on ebay or search them on here, because mod mickey made his own black headlights a 10th of the price and they look just as good and there's also the ram air hood available for the monte's (its a little expensive though)

hey Whiz, the flat surf borad spoiler is the SS one also. jsu thte high sport or the Nascar and some other of the limited cars have the stand up spoiler on them .

If you take a look at the photo albums they are full of ideas here and also Cardomain has a bunch of montes on it to that you can look at.

welcome to the site.
i think the best thing you cna do depending on where ya live is to ge tthe windos tinted in a black car i think it is a must have LOL

Yeah I have the stand up spoiler. Its one of those limited SS monte's. Window tinit was already on when I got the car so now I am lookin at wheels and hookin my stereo system back up. I think I am gonna black it out and put just a little chrome on it

I like the blacked out "stealth" look. The only chrome on mine is the hood emblem (which I hate), and the wheels, both sets. I even painted my calipers black, not red like most people. My Intimidator emblems are now black, along with all of my trunk and rear window tray. Interior roof liner and pieces to be done maybe this summer. I can't tint all my windows, but the rear 3 will get tinted this spring, along with headlight covers. I would like smoked tail lights also, but there is safety issues there, and without LED's, that won't happen.

yeah my buddy told me he thinks I should take that front emblem off. I have some pics of my car on here in the photo gallery. the title of them is blackin out if you wanna look. I took all the emblems off except for the back chevy sign which I am lookin for either blue or chrome and I put chrome and white SS emblems on the side from an 07 monte carlo. the only chrome other than that I am gonna do is I found some awsome black 18" wheels with a chrome lip.

I am saving up to get an aftermarket cd player in my 02 monte but my buddy said you have to buy a lot of adaptors so you can still reset your change oil light and tire pressure light, etc. is this true or can I just put the cd player in and if it is true abou thow much do the adaptors cost and how many do I need. Thanks guys
