check out www.c-c-c.net


my #1 suggestion is to drop it and get sway bars. the difference in handling is dramatic. you probably don't want to go too low in nyc but the comptech drop should be alright.

why would they look different? I have the Eibach's, they are red, so they look different. They are much more heavier, especially the rear.

yah like phipark said... they don't look any different. handling difference is huge though.



why do you want to mess with the headlights? stock headlights are great. get an intake, headers, exhaust, springs, struts, sways, rims and tires, etc. before headlights...

Might have to wait a while for the angle-eyes or the projectors, there are a few threads out there where people were going to attempt the angle-eyes, but it never really happend, and I've never heard of anyone doing projectors on their CL in here.
However, get some different bulbs for your roadlamps, cheap and improves the look when the lights are on by a LOT!
PIAA 19224 for the super whites -OR-
PIAA 19173 for the ion yellows
Polarg also makes bulbs for the road lamps, but I don't have the #'s for those off hand.

About 90% of the board has some sort of Cold Air Intake (CAI) system, most have AEM or the Comptech Icebox. I have the Injen, which I love.

Also, think about dropping it so it dosen't get confused with a 4x4, especially if you are going to get a kit.

welcome to the board from one n00d to another!

Welcome onboard. I think there is a meet this weekend. Come check out some cars.

Post some pics. As for mods....Rims next year is a good plan, drop it, Comptech had a nice exhaust system and intake. AEM CAI's are good too. Check out the Black Market, you can get some nice toys on there.

Congrats on the purchase.

With the tint did they go all the way up in the back window and if so how does it look?

Those projectors are pretty sweet. Did you do them yourself? Or did you have them done for you?

I had them done by www.HIDTech.com in NYC in March 04. they actually looked like this before I painted the rest of the mirror framing. I didn't like they way the projectors initially looked.

Before I painted the mirror framing



After I painted it
