Changes in the making.
So I've decided that my CL will be the first car I start modding. I know I'm starting with the little stuff, but Its a start. 
Before anything.
After some stuff.
More to come such as a drop, maybe some new rims. I wanna go flushed.
Plus I've had this car for 2 years, just FYI. Haven't done too much except changed the headunit.

agreed, azine will murder your bank account. its like a virus, once you get the mod bug, you can't stop modding.
good start with the debadging. get those tints too, i got 5%'s on my back windows and it improves the look alot.

The little stuff is a great place to start, small and subtle changes that make a world of difference, off to a good start man.

tell me about it. went though 3 suspension changes, 2 front lips, 2 exhausts, 3 head units with 2 double dins, 2 intakes, 2 different rims...etc.
just make sure you get good quality parts that fit right. dont want to spend more to fix it or replace it.

Nope. I'm guessing I just have to wait to buff it out. I would like to replace my brakes, rotors, and the inner and outer CV boots today...but I only know up to the rotors and brakes, not the CV boots.

2.) if you wanna smoke your tails, just buy a sheet of tint film and do it yourself, or take it to a tint shop and they can probably do it. Don't get the spray, i've heard bad things about it.
3.) you have to blackhouse your lights on your own, theres instructions in teh DIY section. if you dont wanna do that you can buy the gay depo brand ones with the stripes. look on ebay

again, it depends by state. most if not all states allow only white lights, so HIDS with 4300-6000k should be fine. 3000k and anything over 6000k will be colored and will give you trouble, Mosp33d got a ticket for his yellow HIDs.
i have the same year, trim, and color haha. all ive done so far is dropped it, tint, wrapped the armrest, and silverstars; and it looks 100x better already. good luck with it all! i wouldnt paint these wheels, though. i think the paint color goes well with the polished silver wheels. oh and my steering wheel is yucky too...haha i spent a good while yesterday cleaning it, but still couldnt get it to where i wanted

After living in Cali for 20 years of my life, you'd think I wouldn't know that? LOL. I just need to know how much Percent he used. I can at least do like 3% tint on the driver and passenger windows, as long as i'm still visible. Just not the front windshield.

i have va legal right now which is 50 on the fronts, 35 on the backs and rear window. my armrest is wrapped in a design fabric. my drop was quite cheap..right around 300. look up ground control coilovers and i'd recommend some koni struts with that combo.
