i'll start:
1. re-do sound deadening (front doors and part of the trunk)
2. led shiftgate mod from subtledreamer
3. probably new brakes and tires
4. tuning my V-AFC
i also have to replace my motor mounts and maybe a cv joint..
that's what i wanna do this summer... if the budget goes up ive got plenty of ideas floating around
i also wanna attend more shows and try to get sponsored somewhere somehow...

I gotta install my icebox and xs header. Then hopefully i'll get a comptech axle-back exhaust, koni yellow shocks, ww rear lip, eibach sways, and my holy grail; mugen spoiler. Other than that just little things like painting my grill and clearing out and maybe black out my headlights.

After going to a few shows last year I got the bug to upgrade certain areas of my car. I have purchased the following parts Im just waiting until spring to install them.
* Comptech CAI
* Comptech Oil Cap and Battery Holdown
* Comptech Stainless Brake Hoses
* Drilled and Slotted Rotors
* Custom Made 18' Wheels
* Yokohama ES100 Tires
* Rock Blocker Tailight and Fog Light Kits
* WDP Painted Engine Covers
* Polished Plentum Cover
* Street Glow 7 Color Undercar LED Kit
I cannot wait until the new items are installed. I might add some Comptech Sway Arms in Uncle Sam gives me enough money back.
