GP1138 Posted December 16, 2005 Report Share Posted December 16, 2005 It's an STE.. it just NEEDS the lightbar. Keep it! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GutlessSupreme Posted December 16, 2005 Author Report Share Posted December 16, 2005 i like it, its nice, either one, the lightbar or not, with that color they both look good, but get rid of that disgusting...THING, light bar thing on the trunk, those make the cars look soo freakin ugly It's all or nothin, I'm either gonna keep the STE tails (which I don't mind at all), the red lightbar and the black applique, or throw in normal crosshatched tails and loose the applique and lightbar. I know Greg loved it but I'm trying to get away from the whole spaceship look of the exterior oldskoolgp's car is a huge role model to me, I adore that car. Not the biggest fan of his painted lightbar, like I said I think it's a little tacky, but it works ok with black. And the rest of the car is gourgeous, not to mention great on the track :shock: my goal is pretty much to be the turboed brother of his DOHC, and the rear of his car looks pretty damn good with the normal tails and the spoiler.

J Posted December 16, 2005 Report Share Posted December 16, 2005 wheels yes, a little darker maybe like a saphire (sp) blue, and NO LIGHTBAR! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Crazy K Posted December 16, 2005 Report Share Posted December 16, 2005 I vote no. It looks painted on and that seems so tacky. If you can retrofit the earlier type nose that i see for example a TGP would have that would be better. I'm against painting it. How about a Night Rider led flash car instead? It is painted on. It's a photoshop numbnuts HEY NOW! I think yoour current taillights look fine. I kind of like the space-ship look I supose...... but that just me. If you did a really good job and made it look like some factory prototype with the front end, that would be fantastic. But not bright blue! how about a slightly deeper royal blue? kinda like a color some 90-94 luminas are? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dirty Rockstar Posted December 16, 2005 Report Share Posted December 16, 2005 TOny, lose the light bar.. Looks reall dumb.. Reminds me of a Sable/Tracer/Villager/what the hell ever else mercury put those stupid ass things on.. Ive always been a fan of the "LTE Nose", but why not try out the B5M? (I think thats the TGPs aero kit) I think it would look sweet.. PLUS, you could retrofit the whole thing on, and have the first 4 dor "TGP".. Would be pretty neat.. But as stated, to HELL with the light bar.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GnatGoSplat Posted December 16, 2005 Report Share Posted December 16, 2005 Light bar looks cool, don't lose it! It's unique and 80's futuristic. Mercury Sables were cool, I loved the 1st gen ones. The light bar is what gives the STE's personality and uniqueness. Without it, it's just another nondescript domestic sedan of very little aesthetic interest. Back when I had my Sable, I was proud of the light bar and modified it to hold 27W halogen foglight bulbs! :shock: Back then, Sables were commonplace, but my old high school buddies could always spot me cuz I had the brightest light bar.

Too much work at the moment, I'm just gonna try fuckin around with the front fascia for now. Maybe at a later time I'll get up the courage to try and make new side panels for the doors and stuff. I was going to keep the whole B4M set off the TGP but I only ended up keeping the two fascias I had. tossed the rear bumper, flares and door panels :? they weren't in the best of shape anyway. Mercury Sables were cool. No. Thank you for playing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

White93z34 Posted December 16, 2005 Report Share Posted December 16, 2005 the light bar is one of those things that looks better in person then any picture i've seen, i like it myself. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
logikf1ve Posted December 16, 2005 Report Share Posted December 16, 2005 I love it. The color is perfect, and the white wheels look really nice too. If you opted to just get rid of the lightbar that would make the car look 100% better alone. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Burnout524 Posted December 16, 2005 Report Share Posted December 16, 2005 is a STE keep it that way! I agree! Keep the light bar, keep the rims, and paint it blue. That'd look soo hot! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
88Regal Limited Posted December 23, 2005 Report Share Posted December 23, 2005 iof you paint it a blue, try the "arrivial blue metalic" pain used on 03-05 cavaliers and 05+ cobalts! Has a nice metal flake in it when washed. Even though it's stock I get many compliments on it. (the paint, that is) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Anonymous Posted December 26, 2005 Report Share Posted December 26, 2005 I'm yoting yes provided you put on an 88-90 SE BYP fascia and lose that disgusting lightbar altogether. If you just paint the lightbar, then no. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
88Regal Limited Posted December 26, 2005 Report Share Posted December 26, 2005 i think some1 needs to invest in a better camera the new camera money went into the " I have to fix the fucking regal so I can get to work at over 25mph" funding. Oh well, when I get $600! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
no1kicker Posted December 26, 2005 Report Share Posted December 26, 2005 The lightbar grew on me after a while. I still think it would be cool to do a full 4 door B4U swap. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PCGUY112887 Posted December 29, 2005 Report Share Posted December 29, 2005 Either ya love or hate the lightbar. At first I didn't like mine, but it started to grow on me and after I put on my bra it made it look a lot better. Then one time I was at the gas station and saw a guy I know go by so I went after him and flagged him down, when I was talking to him the next day he said that he always knows my car becuase it looks like theres fucking aircraft lights behind him when i'm there . So now I wanna add red and blue strobes inside. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
