2004 TL Modification list

Hey everybody,

I'm putting together a list of mods that I want to make to my '04 Base TL SSM. It's basically just a list for me to prioritize and track what I've done, as well as keep my budget on track. However, with that said, I want your input! there's no question some of you have a lot nicer cars, and a lot more creativity than I do, so let me know if there are mods you think I should add, or things that I definitely shouldn't do. Thanks!

External:

Tint (19% Metallic rear, 30% metallic front)
Cleared head lights
9,500K LED DRL
8,000K HID
Custom tail lights
Smoked rear side marker
Summer Rims (Enkei EKM3 in silver)

Matte Black Roof Vinyl

A-Spec Lip Kit

Internal/extra:

Bluetooth
Radar Detector
LED interior lights
Custom Gauges in dash w/ white pointers instead of red (not even sure if this is possible)

Performance:

Exhaust
J Pipe
CAI

Everything is in order of priority based on availability, cost, and style. The only exceptions being rims (cause I'm waiting till spring) and the lip kit, cause it's so much more expensive than all the other exterior mods.

I want the car to have a very clean, all silver w/ slight blue accent look. (accent from the front lights, a few decals I've put on, and of course the interior blue lighting, gauges, and center console) Let me know what you think! I'll create a progress thread once I actually start working on it (probably January)

The J-pipe (V3 from Richie) should be the #1 priority for performance.

Alex, be aware that the RV6 V3 pipe deletes the 3rd cat...you aren't listing a test pipe in your mods so you might want to explore all options on this item.
