i was going to keep the color but remove the crome and replace with gold
and replace the rims with gold to bring my crown royal theme together.
But i guess my rims need to stay on to keep the original look.
I was going to make that one different and keep the white one semi stock looking.
Now it seems i should do the opposite.

Welcome! You have a very rare SE

I think that's first one I've seen that color that is an SE. I would keep it all original and it could be a nice collectors car very soon.

Funny, cause I paid 450$ and it cost me 150$ to get it running. Guess the previous owner didn't know what he had.

Are those wheels for winter? I wonder if the previous owner sold the SE wheels?

Yes, it was a steal.

No, I replaced the rims the other night with SE rims I bought off Kijiji. I'm trying to get it 100% SE again first before anything else. It needs a new front bumper, but I'm weary as I want it matching the original laguna blue colour. I'll have to cross my fingers and hope someone is selling one, haha.

I'll post interior pics when I get the chance. Car is in storage for the winter. When my working schedule is less hectic, I'll run over there and snap a few.

i looked up those 25th anniversary cars. How cool is that for a few of these cars
to have been made different then all the rest. I remember when i got the raspberry car.
I was going to the store and it was for sale in the parking lot.
I called the number and the guy was selling the car for his wife.
He was very happy i was a female. He thought the color was purple
so anyone that called him asked what color it was and he said purle.
After the car had been for sale for a month or so i called him back and made an offer.
He wanted $2900.00 I offered $2000.00
He took the offer and now the car is mine. BUT, the first day i had it on the road
I hit a hog on the highway out in the country. I wasnt used to the car
so that sent me spinning off a cliff. That is when the front spoiler lip
was torn off and broken. Then the next night a deer was crossing in front
of me and tore up the passanger side headlight, hood and door.
This poor car must think her new owner isnt taking care of her.
So i want to make her feel good again and look good again.
I like the idea of the crown royal theme and keep her color but add gold intead of crome.
I was going to seller her rims but im not sure yet. With the new info i just found out
about her, i guess i should hang onto them. What if i have the rims painted gold?
Does that work well? or no?

[mitmaks]

have them powdercoated, I would go with gunmetal.

[tripleMX-3chicMS]

what is gun metal? Is that some kind of GOLD color?

[93vtecklr]

No its a dark grey, google gunmetal rims in an image search.

[tripleMX-3chicMS]

but i need it to look gold not grey. I shouldnt mess with the original rims on the GS SE.
I wanted the rim to go with the theme of the car. I can always hang on to them in my shop.
Then i could gold rims on her and make her all sparkly. LOL!

If you rice out an SE so help me god........

I know, interior is already funky "tiger" theme lol

[tripleMX-3chicMS]

LOL.... no no no im not doing the SE weird. It is staying all black interior with a little touch of: (1 tiny crown bag on shifter, purple and gold crown rugs and some purple lights at my feet) and maybe a hand made crown bag head rest for the top of each seat. The white GS is the one with the zebra and ITS NOT TIGER STRIPES...... its zebra print. The SE is going to be painted the same color it is now. Don't worry guys..... take some credit for teaching me better then that. After all, i just found out it was an SE. LOL!

[tripleMX-3chicMS]

rice out..... ROFLMAO
