[QUOTE="TRBO VNM, post: 2348547, member: 14678"] you know I really thought about getting the black/polished lip, but didn't want to deal with the cleaning of the polished lip. I think the chrome is easier to clean, but I do have a lot more chrome...oh well. well, the mods are endless really and it all depends on what you really plan to do with the car. suspension: coil over is going to be a great choice and have a wide range of adjustment depending on what you like. But it is pretty expensive($1000+ for so for the MM kit I believe or around there). If you just want the lowered look with a little handling added to it they just do springs. shifter: MGW all the way. get the shifter, not the handle. it is amazing and I haven't missed a shift yet. subframes: Maximum Motorsports full length subframes all the way. I would get the powder coated ones. it is harder for the welder because of the prep work, but it does protect them a lot longer. you can get the non powder coated and then after they are welded you can paint them with a rustoleum or krylon or something. you can even put undercoating on if you want. gauges, since you aren't modding the engine I wouldn't bother with a boost/vac gauge and you don't need anything in regards to A/F if you are keeping the motor stock for now, but I highly, I mean highly recommend an electronic fuel pressure and electronic oil pressure gauge. The stock oil gauge sux and the fuel pressure can save your motor. as an example, I blew my FRPS last weekend and in the matter of a split second I looked at my fuel pressure gauge and saw 0 fuel pressure and shut the car off. no damage to anything. basically the car fell on its face, I shifted into the next gear and looked at the gauge and shut the car down. anyway, those are my thoughts and what I would do. you are more than welcome to PM me for more info. I may not have gone into a lot of detail here as these are just ideas and my recommendations. [/QUOTE]
