Nice, I'm still debating which ones to get, webelectric or the ones on AM.

I'd get subframe connectors and sway bars.

Only difference I see is webelectic has life time warranty while AM is 2 year.

Will be waiting till February to see if LCA, SFC, etc are on sell then. If not. Oh well. Maybe some cobra mid pipes will be.

I think the webelectric ones sequence slower the the one on AM without the Modded turn signal flasher. They are also a bit cheap( at least last time I checked).

I'm waiting for the Swaybars to go on sale

Car won't start. Battery has juice when I turn the key nothing happens. All the other stuff comes on but the starter doesn't even try to start. Is there a fuse to this or is it just the starter. Any help please.

Do you turn the key and everything turns off or nothing happens if you turn the key?

Turn the key and everything comes on but the engine will not start.

Install is what hurts the most of SFC. The ones I got were $100 but install was $300. I had a set of FL SFC and I was quoted $460 for those.

Check the power wire to your starter and look in you manual and check the fuse. If those both check out, then its probably your starter.

Heated garage. At about 55 F. Won't be able to get it out today to get it to the shop unless the roads clear up more around the house.

I also think something is staying turned on and slowly drains my battery. Reason why I say this is cause I tried to change a blown fuse and when I put the new one in it blew up the second it made contact and the car was not turned on.

Fuel pump ran when turning the key. Had to push start it and got it to the shop today.

Also tinted my second set of tail lights. Didn't go super dark.

Pictures right before a coat of wax.

Those look great! I'd love to tint my tails, but I really don't want to get pulled over.

You won't, my bro in law pretty much blacked out his tail lights ( you can barely see his brake lights during the day ) and the cops haven't pulled him over for it, he even has 5% tint , no problems.

I've heard the opposite. Depends where you are I guess. I probably wouldn't go very dark though anyways.

I see all kinds of trucks with completely black tails and I don't think they ever do anything about them here. I just wanted to go the safest route and do a very lite tint.

Nathan you should tint yours, don't even have to do a black out tint. I think the 99-04 cars look much better than the 96-98 with tinted lights.
