I have seen it. Thanks for the heads up, though.

I am utterly shocked that NO ONE has mentioned brake pads. I hated the factory pads - dusted horribly. Was the first thing I had to do.

Yeah, they are seriously dusty, but with black wheels I don't notice it so much.

I've noticed that most of the lists don't have coil overs on there..Is it due to most of you have the magnetic ride? My only caveat I would have with coilovers is ruining my future plans of adding a front splitter and rockers lol especially if they are fiberglass....YIKES

For me when my car was less than a month old

headers, catback exhaust, fully forged bottom end, supercharger, cam and supporting mods, upper and lower pulleys, ported lt4 heads, upgraded fuel system, ugraded clutch tune.

No I'm not kidding lol. Drove it for 2.5 weeks stock and definitely needed way more powah.

I have begun my list and wouldn't change the order:

1 - Tint 15% (backs), 35% (fronts, damn you Texas), 15% (Windshield) All full ceramic
2 - Blackout (Third Brake, Side Markers and Rear Diffuser Reflectors)
3 - Sto-N-Sho front license bracket (Also, thank you Texas)
Not in TX # 3 - RotoFab CAI
4 - Borla S-Type Axle Back
5 - Eibach springs
6 - GM Front Splitter
7 - Black Tails
8 - Wheels, Tires and brake pads (No need to replace brand new equipment)

I know this list is a little longer than 5, but as of next week I will be at my first 5 mods.

So what's your top 5 list usually when you first purchase your car? I am thinking coil overs,wheels, and tinting my tail lights for 1st year..And next yr worry about a new splitter,rockers, diffuser and exhaust...Thoughts?
There are lots of mods listed here, but what do you plan on doing with the car? What are your goals? If you are going to race or track with it, what organization (if any) are you going to race with, they may have some limitations on what can be done. Without an idea of what your goals are there is no way for anyone to make suggestions on how to get there.

Then you're not interested in "mods" just customizing additions
