I selected the most mods, afterall why do a little when you can do a lot. Read my sig for most of my mods.

What about the option of exhaust and exterior? Anyway I selected exterior for now b/c the ext and exh option isn't included. Give me time though and, if those SC aren't causing any problems it'll be engine, exhaust, and exterior

Floor mats and speakers here. Haven't had the courage to change the engine/exterior yet. I will have to ease myself into the bigger mods. Probably wheels and tires next.

I have changed rims/tires and added heated seats. Not sure which option I should choose.

$675 installed by the dealer as part of the new car purchase. So they are covered under the 3/36k warranty.

I started with heated seats too. Mine were only $400 at the dealer and included a high and low temp setting.

I have done:
Heated Seats, Sequential tailights, Gas Hood Struts, JLT intake, Predator tune, I painted the ponies under the hood, Steeda Shifter Bushings, rear blackout panel, changed my spoiler to black,

Future ideas:
Finsh the paint scheme (paint the hood black), black chin, bassanni exhaust/x-pipe, shaker hood system, maybe a tri-ax, maybe wheels

And I am sure that list will grow. It is like I have fallen off a cliff and keep tunbling down the modifying hill.

Picked Engine/Exhaust/Exterior since there wasn't Exhaust/Exterior. I guess it's true if you count taking out the HC thingy.

Magnaflow Catback
20" TSW Catalunya's on KDW2's.

I'm very happy with the car stock. I have a few mods listed that I'm pondering in my sig. I'll likely only make some very small non-noticable changes such as CAI. When the warranty is up I'll make some major engine upgrades to get as much juice out of her as possible .

right now I did an exhaust mod by putting on a set of SLP Loudmouths. They are the greatest I have ever heard! The next thing for the exhaust I might do is and off road x-pipe. Also will be getting an MRT shiftball soon. So far I still like the power this thing put's out stock so no engine or drivetrain mod's as of yet.

All I've done thus far is a K&N, "GT300" rocker panel stripes, spinner knock-offs... I'm waiting on delivery of my recently ordered Flowmater Axle-back exhaust ($277.00, no tax and free shipping from Summit)....

Cut my rear springs. That's it so far. Got my Roush side window louvres. Working on prepping and painting them.

Eventually plan on getting Roush spoiler. And Vortech supercharger. Should be fun. Plan on doing most of the work myself. My friend's big into cars and is helping me out.

This one's gonna stay stock, except for minor changes that are quickly reversible (shorty antenna; pony spinners; aftermarket mats; etc.). No engine mods or serious interior mods planned for mine - I'm thinking it will one day be a collectible car, plus it runs quite good enough for me as it is without spending any more money on it. I'm also thinking I may start entering it in some car shows a few years down the road; I've always been drawn to the stock show cars and I think this one looks great just like the day I brought her home.
