Well I'm in Mt Pleasant MI. I've had my Bonneville for about 2 months now and I've loved every minute of it. I've looked around the site quite a bit and there is a lot of good stuff on here!
I haven't done anything to my car yet because I am poor, but this weekend I plan on putting a Pontiac arrowhead decal in the back window and get my windows tinted. Should look a ton better when it is all done.

Also, a few of quick questions:
1. Where would I find a license plate filler for the front bumper? I have a plate from the dealership on there and it looks terrible
2. My headlights have a hazy look to them, how do I clean that up?
3. I want to clear my headlights out. My brother was saying that if I were to do that, I would need to do some electrical work or something because of the LEDs. Just wondering if thats true.

Welcome to the club, I am only about 20 minutes from you here in Sanford!!

If you need help clearing the lights, let me know, or stop out maybe this weekend and we can get it done for the cost of some Silverstar bulbs... about $10. I cleared the lights on my wife's '03 last year with the help of another member here, leftd90.

You should check out the link in my sig :wink:

well I usually go home on the weekends because I go to CMU and it is pretty dead around here in the summer. I'll have to let you know sometime when I do plan on staying up here. Is there any electrical work I would have to do?

Where is home?

There is no electrical work at all. Just get the Silverstar turn signal bulbs. They look chrome or purple / blue when not on, but when you hit the blinker they turn amber just like they should.

Here is my wife's '03 SSEi after cleared lights with the Silverstar bulbs.

You should stop out at the Michigan meet on the 21st.

Hey, welcome!

I spent four years in Mt. Pleasant. My wife and I both graduated from CMU!

Where do you live in the MP? I used to live in Concord Apts and my wife lived in Edgewood Apts.

well Pewamo is kinda by St. John's. It's really small. I live in Tallgrass Apartments. I've been up here for two years and I liked it so far. Next school year will be even better because I'll finally be 21 in September.
