Heyooooo
Hey, my name's Matt. I'm 24. I was on the old rspeed site, but never got too too into it. I drive a 2003 Pontiac Grand Prix GT. I'm what you'd call 'not mechanically inclined' so my goal here is to meet people who are, and that can teach me or help me do stuff to my car. Yes. So far the only "modifications" I have done have been appearance-wise. I installed some mesh grilles and reflective lettering on the back bumper :P. I hope to at some point to install a Fenderwell intake and do some minor exhaust work to give the car a little pep.
Anyway, Hai.

Yeah, it's a 3800 v6. I'm also a member of the "ClubGP" messageboards. I've learned alot from there, but I'm still clueless as to what can be done, how, when...and all this jazz...

Not mechanically inclined eh? It's alright. We all started somewhere.
Some of us had to kill two cars in order to gain some insight 
There's a good knowledge base here and a good amount of shops to point you in the right direction. Just remember to take everything you hear with a grain of salt and always make your own decisions in the end.
Welcome.

Thanks for the welcoming...My car is NA actually. The GTP trim is S/C and the SE is the base, I'm smack dab in the middle with the GT. I know basically where to get mods, but the problem is installing them and all that jazz. And I grew up around the capital region, like East Greenbush, Rentler, and maybe the last 4 years here in AP...
