And what a pain! But totally worth doing and I would do it again...
What do you think?
Pardon the uncleanliness of the car, it rained a lot here last night
Votes for who thinks I should find and put on a GXP spoiler?



I tried finding the silverstar bulbs that flash orange and look silver, but as my luck would have it, they seem to have been discontinued

looks ten times better than the amber..you werent kidding about taking off your caps at work were you?

hell yes you need a GXP spoiler..and i hear you about the rain..my trucks almost clean again..almost

EDIT: the cleared tails really compliment that badge you put on the trunk lid

center caps?

The place I work at is kinda ghetto... And now with working midnights there's no lot security whatsoever... I do NOT want to try to find a perfect set of 01 center caps...lol

hahaha! That sucks though...


The tails look awesome! I was wondering if you had received the package fine since I didn't hear from you. But they look great! And you go rid of that red thing on the bumper cover too, nice!

LOL that is awesome... I have never heard of anyone removing their center caps for security!

I got sick of that old man reflective strip on the bumper cover months ago... I was almost afraid to touch it, but I just went for it and it went very well...

My friend had an 03 Envoy (modded ) and at school he lost his center caps one day after I told him to take them off so they don't grow legs... The envoy centers are cheap and plentiful at only 100 bucks for a set... I'm sure you guys know how hard these centers can be to find, especially the 01's...
In case you can't tell, I'm very protective of my cars...

Looking great!!

Idk about the GXP spoiler, it will resemble a certain car I'm not really a fan of...

looks great, I personally like the the 01 spoiler over the GXP, so IMO keep it original...and I don't blame you for taking the caps off, they a pain to get and expensive.

I kinda feel the same, but after seeing some pictures of an 02-04 SLE IIRC, with a GXP spoiler, I kinda think it would look cool, and I have grown tired of how the SSEi spoiler drips water onto everything in my trunk when it opens after a wash or rain... Does this still happen with a GXP? to the same extent or a little more/ less?

The lens look great! How do you separate the housing, remove the amber and re-seal the housings?
I wasn’t sure what a GXP spoiler was until I looked it up, but now that I’ve seen it I say go for it. My question is what’s it off of or is it aftermarket?

I've never seen sleared tails! That looks sharp! I'd love to see that on a black Bonnie! Bet that also looks killer!

i often see cars on sale lots without center caps. They either don't want them stolen, and took them off, or they were stolen.

This is how I cleared mine, http://www.pontiacbonnevilleclub.com/fo ... =42&t=9349
The GXP spoiler is just a different piece than an SE/SLE/SSEi would have had from 00-05, the GXP had some different parts on them in terms of cosmetics, and most of them are interchangeable with the SE/SLE/SSEi.
Here is a good pic of Ed's showing the difference between an SSEi and a GXP spoiler;

The GXP has a three piece spoiler whereas the Ei's, SLE's, and SE's had the one like in my pics and on Ed's car (Blue one)

The GXP spoiler is off of the 2004-2005 Bonneville GXP...

I guess I've never seen one down here.

She looks amazing. I need to get around to clearing them as well. I too must vote nay on the GXP spoiler. Just don't see it working with the swoopies. Call me weird. And man we sure are getting rained on a lot lately eh?

Which method did you use ti clear the tails? The bake em open in the oven or the cut them from the back
