Hey guys, just wondering what you guys think are the best mods. What gives the biggest bang for the buck. A bodykit, or would you rather gave a bunch of stuff that add up to the price of one, etc... Anybody got any mods that are their favorite or that you think add a lot to your car..etc... feel free for detail, or just a couple of words, thanks

The free mods first.

Then paintin your engine bay and dressin it up some. Cheap and looks great.

THen I'd have to say a CAI and BBTB. Then the exhaust.

Well, if you dont have a CAI and dont want to spring for one (ie if u plan on going turbo sometime soon) I would sugest this:

Remember to reset your ECU after doing it though. Do a search on this site for resetting your ECU.

My favorite mods... Rims... nothing changes the look of a car more than a nice set of rims... the next change that makes the car look different.. lowering.. Of course they also both have the added effect of making the car handle better... so it is a win/win situation.

Default Re: Removing dealer badge

removing the door dinger is the best mod you can possibly do for free....


anyone else that says otherwise is deaf and shold be shot, or is legally insane already because they were too late to diagnose the problem (im talking about those of you who dont even notice it anymore).
