New louvers

Just got my louvers from American Muscle in. What else would you recommend?

I was thinking about getting two black racing stripes. I think I like the 12 inch stripes better than the 8 inch.

lose those things on the doors and the side stripes. Good call on the rims and set your wing back farther on the trunk lid.

Sorry Glenn, but I think all those things would make my car look worse.

No really different rims will make it look better and the wing idea I did on my 2k and most people liked the looks of that also.

I can't see the car very well but larger tires or lowering springs are always a good mod.

All stock rims on sn95's look sinking in at the rear. So wider will look good. And I wouldn't lower it until you got rims...

I do want new rims but I'm definitely not moving my spoiler. It's already only like an inch from the end of the trunk.

Beauty is in the eye of the beholder. Moving the spoiler back is just a free DIY thing. IMO rims, lower, gears and a tune.

I put on my chin spoiler yesterday, and I ordered a polished bullitt grille. I was thinking about getting two 12" racing stripes and a 14" antenna. I don't really want to lower it because I don't want my chin spoiler to scrape.

Personally I think the stripes will be an overkill. And they're a pita to put on. Save for some fat rubber!!!

I do want some new rims. The two on the passenger side are warped. What rims would you recommend? I know I don't want any that are all black.

Go look on American muscle, they have good tire/wheel deals. I person personally like bullits. 9+ inches in the rear, to get rid of that sunken in look. But again, this is m opinion.

Wider tires in the back does look better, but I wouldn't be able to rotate them.

Get 9 inches front and back and wheel spacer for the rear.

I alway thought rotating tires was overrated. If the fronts are wearing funny why would you want the rears to wear funny too by putting them on the front. I have staggered wheels/tires. I will just buy new rear or front tires when I need them.

That's a good idea about the spacers on the rear, but I don't really have enough money for rims any time soon. In the meantime, what do you guys think about this air filter:

I don't really want to spend $200 on a metal tube, so I thought I'd just get the filter.
