Cool

I just got my ACS Style hood and trunk spoiler and I have to say, it is not the "perfect fit" but I am crazy like that. I do like it though.
Please let me know what you think.
Oh, the last 2 photos are of me trying to decide which tail tints I should go with. Please give me your input, thoughts or recommendations (only on the car flyingpuck! ).






Full...



Partial....

Well, I ordered the Interior/Plate lighting kit from Trinity Autosport, I already have the HID fogs from Elite Motorsports, and I am waiting on my GP thunders. Next will be tints all around including tails. I am also thinking about SB and AFE. We will see. My wife has a college degree and I dont.

Modding Positives= car looks good and wallet lighter to carry
Modding Negatives= Wallet lighter to carry

2 Positives vs. one negative woooohoooo!!!

Consider the money out of your wallet a reduction of unsprung weight when you drive
