bit by bit...
my first mods:

40% tint all around.

Trunk closer aid that attaches to license plate - from Ultimatecupholders.com

(incredibly fast shipping). The trunk closing aid is extremely well built. Very heavy gauge polished SS.

I would like to get the red reflectors in the bumper.
The body colored ones make the rear a little too plain...

Interesting. Never seen that before. Smart idea. Although, if redwhiteblue were still around, he would say that would drop your 0-60 an extra second or two.
