Default New to the monte carlo scene; SS 2000

Hey guys been looking around and there's allot of good stuff on this forum, helped me wire me radio and run power cable for amp on a few posts i saw.

long story short is ive always bought and sold cars. ive had 4 grand Prix(97,99,2000,2004) a park avenue(1998) an expedition (2000) a 1999 grand Cherokee limited and now my Monte Carlo that i didn't buy to sell actually every car i listed ive bought for under 1500 with minimal amount of work to do on them and sold most for 2500-3000. and im only 19 haha but thats just a little about my self and what i like to do.

i was on craigslist looking for a Daily driver to school and work then home to keep and came across a white 2000 ss monte carlo and i liked it alot 140k miles clean AS HECK. only down side was it wasn't leather boo hoo i know. but i sucked it up and said aw the heck with it. dude wanted 3500$ for it and it was already cheaper than most i saw online. i ended up picking it up for 2600$. so yu guys let me know if its a good deal.

so far all ive done is put 2 12" pioneer champion series subs and a 1200w hifonics amp mono block d brutus amp. 4guage wire. and a indash radio ill post pics.

i dont know what else to do give some tips. tints and 20" rims are a sure thing though.

thanks to every one, for being very welcoming over at the grand prix forums every one always tlak bad because I don't like speed to much I like looks of the car and riding slow for every one to see haha.

is there a post some where with like a list of hmm for Example " best mods for under 20$"
also I want to find a black and white SS logo to debate and only leave one of those on each door.?
also my gas gauge goes wild n never tells me the correct gas. goes from full to empty to 1/4 to 3/4 and so on but I'm sure a search will help me find most of this if no one helps me here but thanks every one looking forward to contributing with you guys.
