Nothing major...I added some ACS pedals. They are ebay replicas. I wanted to give the interior a little more personality. I was shocked at how good the quality was when I opened the box since I only paid $75 for them shipped. They are very well made. The ACS logo is engraved not painted on. They are cut nice and smooth with no metal splinters.

They were very easy to install as long as you have the right tools. The only thing that took a little work was the brake since I had to drill into the metal pedal. The accelerator pedal was easy since I removed it from the car. (It was easy to remove since I remember how to do it when I installed the Sprint Booster) The dead pedal was very easy.

Anyway, it was something else small to make a difference in the interior. I've put these in a couple of my past cars. I like it! I've always been a fan of stainless pedals since I first saw them in the 01 is300. here are the pics...

(I know I need to clean my car )

You need to put some NY Ranger stickers over the ACS emblems, then the mod will be complete.

I was actually thinking about making a few of these and gluing them to each of your windows...

She saw me installing these in the driveway. I got the "I guess I missed that box getting delivered huh?"

I showed her the finished product. She liked them...She also said "Didn't you have those in your last car?"
