I twisted my shifter **** 45 degrees clockwise, that cost $0, and I didn't know I did it until I looked down... and there it was, turned. I'm weird like that, but it looks and feels right to me, so it stays.

Vht night shade for the tail/head lights. Maybe brake caliber paint and if your daring, maybe paint the rims.
Not sure how great these will look but if you take your time I'm sure these simple mods may look good. Just trying to help out lol

I copied someone in here(mylilpony?) that used push on truck/van door edge chrome trim for the grille edge- still like that little break around the grille, but I'm too cheep to get the bullitt grille
it only lasts about 2 years, but its cheap to replace.
I still want to pull my taillights and semigloss black the perimeter/seams...might not seem like much, but pics ive seen it really makes the lenses pop- especially with a trunk blackout...could probably go real cheap and make your own vinyl blackout for a couple bucks worth of decent sign vinyl...or 20 bucks on ebay(30 for magnetic one)

I work for a Lincoln Dealership, this was a warrantied defective sun visor
out of a Lincoln Town Car that had a cosmetic defect, the homelink unit was
fine, since Ford did not recall the part back we were throwing it away, I was able to get it for free.

Cool, I was just looking at them on e-bay. The rolling code ones go for about $25 used. You were able to fit the control box under the lamp housing? I was thinking about getting one and installing it. If it goes well I may even try to install one in Altima too.

Pretty cool tail light mod if you don't already have sequentials. This mod will make all three tail light segments light up when you hit the brakes - and it costs less than $15. You might have to pm MTAS for the step by step photos as they are not in this thread any longer.
