Cool New here

I recently bought a 98 2.3 cl 5 speed iced teal pearl about 2 to 3 months ago. just getting around to modding it. right now all i have done is 20% all around besides front windshield. been thinking about dropping it a couple inches and putting black 18's with a chrome lip, a custom catback exhaust, possibly a underglow kit and only run a light blue color on it, a system, and H.I.Ds
ill post pics of it tomorrow when i get home from work.
let me know what everyone thinks!

Sounds like you got some great plans for it. Welcome to the family. Any ideas on the suspension you wanna go with?

Can't wait to see some pics.

For shocks it depends if you want to adjust the stiffness or not, another option is tein basics that come with shocks

Welcome bro! Hope you find this board as useful as I have. The search function is a good idea as I still ask n00b questions that have been asked before. You will get n00b hazed if you don't search. lol.

^That'd look pretty sweet if you were able to pull it off. Ask BlackAck, he'll tell you all about Carbon Fiber hoods.

are those stock OEM fogs or are they some after market knock off? They look a bit big for stock...

Even if they are after market, they look great. reminds me of my car.

G'luck finding oem's they're impossible to find, that's why I had to get something different, only sets I could find were $200+
