EXPENSIVE SUMMER... Spontantious moding

Ever since the weather got nice up here in Michigan... I've been going nuts with my car. Over the past month, here's what I've done...

- Borla S-Type Cat-back Exhaust System
- PEDDERS Street 2 Suspension Kit
- Cold Air Induction System, Powdercoated Black
- GM Strut Tower Brace
- Custom Painted Engine Cover (SIM)

I absolutely love it. The sound and performance are far better than I expected. Running out of things to do before voiding my warranty.... But its so addicting

Next goal is to make the wheels more flush with the body, and possibly ceramic brake pads...

I like those wheels on your car. It fits it well with the tinted windows and blackouts. Very nice!

No, the stock engine covers are a warm, slightly darker silver. It does not have a clear coat either. I wanted it to match my paint exactly.

Always liked your car. I wish they made those wheels in 20s. Sounds like a blast to drive with those suspension mods.
