NooB Needs help tricking out 99 3.0Cl
Ive had my 99 CL3.0 since 4/20/00 bought it new with 178 miles and now I have 76,000 I have a spoiler and 18 in. crome rims and low profile Toyo tire and I want to put a body kit on as well as Air intake / exaust and a turbo or super charger. I want to start with the air intake and exaust, then the body kit. Any ideas, ive seen only one kit , black widow2

of a body kit. You don't want that crap. Look around at the mods for Wings West lips and Accord side skirts. Some mods are necessary to make them work... but the result is nice.Good luck.

Wow, i'm glad you edited your post after calling me "stupid snot nosed little kid."
What's snotty about telling you to search? that's what newbs are supposed to do.
I may be younger than you but at least i don't go around calling names, such maturity.
But hey, i might know more about the 3.0 than you since you just starting out modding. Just ask if you want any help, i'll help a fellow 3.0 owner.

It handles alot better on the highways swapping lanes at high speeds, it feels tighter in the back end at high speeds, the spoiler is really not that big, I dont know why everyone talks about it.

I think I should probably add....
This community relatively shares the same taste when it comes to the CL.. We get people that come here with wings and big rims and body kits, we make fun, they go away... Think of it as our own personal gauntlet.
So just take it as constructive criticism... Dont take any offense to it. If you can get through your first post without blowing up, you should be good to go....
Post some more pics so we can get a better idea of what it looks like.

And the V6s are horrible, the stock 200HP 3.0 CL has no problem beating the V6 mustang and depending on the driver could beat the V8 GT. As I have, cuz the person driving the mustang didnt shift right, or I got the lead on the start while they spun the tires. Now a GTO thats a V8 !

Alright, are you honestly going to start talking smack? I Fear No Five O, I believe pretty much knows his shit from what I've read and you're going to talk shit? Thats not the way to start things off. And yeah, maybe you should post some decent resolution pictures instead of trying to market it off...blah blah i have 18 inch rims and a spoiler..COOL. You want a high five? You've posted in a couple of threads now and you've said you have a 18ins in one than 19ins in another. Which one is it?
you cant go wrong with crome, I have 19s on my 99 3.0 CL
Pick a size. Post some pictures. And why would you say I dont like chrome? Haha wtf. Just from the pic your wheels look G UNIT. My friends Saturn has wheels that look like those and they're all thugged out looking and shit. Thats why I dont like them..from that small picture.

THats whats sooo cool about opinions. Is that everyone can have one...
My opinion is that your 18" rims and your shopping car handle wing, looks like crap in those pictures... But that is only my opinion....

850 rwhp is insane, that's definately an engine. I've always loved the 03-04 Mach 1's.
