thanks lots guys! its nice to know someone noticed i hadnt posted in awhile
just curious---i dont have one to compare, but its a fender-well intake possible on a bonne? i never really looked at my 99 while i had it. the fenders looked too thin, but perhaps there was lots of extra space.

The 92-99 body style Bonnevilles have evap canisters in the place where we put our fender well intakes. They work very nicely there, and especially with my bumper having been torn away at by the previous owner, there'* lots of clearance!

That'* a VERY nice vehicle.
For some reason when I heard the exhaust, I was thinking I was watching an SSEi video... and then it started and I said wait a minute :? Then my brain did a hard reset and looked up at the badges lol.

Well done.

Its the little things about the GP GXP that I like more 1) proper quad exhaust outs (not those stupid pig snouts the GTP has) 2) the Pontiac dart on the steering wheel, instead of the GP badge on my GTP 3) the chrome ring around the HVAC vents 4) the GXP fog lights are so much better....
I could go on...

What did you do to the exhaust?

exhaust, intake, and hp tune are my only engine mods while im under warranty ---there is supposedly a turbo kit coming out from cartuning, but might as well save up for a built tranny as well.
