2006 GTO, color is spice red metallic. I installed a factory SAP kit, JHP gauges, VZ wheels, Billet Pro shifter and a Kenwood DNX5120 radio.

That is the factory SAP (Sports Appearance Package) kit. I ended up putting the full kit on which includes the SAP mufflers. The mufflers were made by Magnaflow for GM. The only thing I changed was the tips which now are a bit larger in diameter than the tips included in the kit. I installed everything on a blistering hot July day, the front bumper extension was the worst of it. I think I sweated 10lbs off that day.

I replaced it last summer, wanted a GPS unit in there. Very easy to install, I still have to replace the back speakers.

I have the Billet Pro in there now. A much shorter throw and solid feeling shifter but I miss the look and the feel of the Hurst handle.

Billet Pro

Thanks, I read your advice about the calendar shots, I have to take some new pics when the spring comes with the car a little further away.

I think I paid about $450 for them two years ago. I got them from JHP Australia. I don't know if your familiar with them or not but the 04's have a different wiring setup then the 05/06 so you will need a 04 gauge kit if you are looking to buy one.

Not yet. The plan is heads, cam, intake, and headers when I save up enough cash. Plus a Pedders kit and widen the rear VZ wheels to 9". But the economy has put a damper on my mod money for now.
