So its been a couple months since I got the G8, and the 'mod' bug bit me a little. So far I have a RotoFab intake put in, as well as the RotoFab radiator cover, and then had some parts Hydro-dipped carbon fiber. Then I went ahead and had some plaques made up and fitted the floor mats with what should have been there originally. Next spring I plan on dropping in some exhaust and then get a tune. Nothing much planned after that. Here are some pictures below:

Looks amazing. I love those floor mats. Subtle but nice touch!

Yes. This needs to be moved to the proper forum, though...

Screw you, Photobucket.

Awesome ride man. During my search for a new car before I got my Regal, I was looking exclusively for Bonnevilles and G8's. Any G8 I ever found was always out of my price range but *dang*... the crippling debt would have been worth it.

If you don't mind me asking, what's the cost of having stuff hydro-dipped? I'm sure it'll vary by whoever I take it to, but I've always been curious.

It was $400 to get all if that dipped. Kinda expensive, but it looks awesome.
