Default I Have Just Installed Everything I Wanted Now What??

Hello all,
I had just boughtn the last thing I had wanted and read about in this amazing foreman today. I bought a escort solo s2 rcordless radar detector. I have only had this car for less then four months and have paid it off 6 mnths ahead and have performed every mod I wanted to do. Below is the list of the mods I have done.
OEM spoiler installed at the dealership
20% M3 tint
ISP wheels from sewell lexus
silver limited adition joe z intake
tanabe med. exhaust
led lighted scuff plates from sewell
5-led refractor parking lights
mtec 6000 fog light and low beam HID kit
heon drl bulb
5 led refractor puddle lights, blue 5 led dome lamps,blue 9 led rear dome lamps
07 e350 door lense covers with blue 5 led bulbs
white 5 led trunk light
and last but not least as i said the escort
Any ideas what to do next or what your all think about my mods
Thanks in advance to any responses
Jon

IMO the car seems to be stock with intake and exhaust if you don't count in the mickeymouse stuff.

I'd say it's time to sell it and move on.

or, how about just being satisfied with it and enjoy the damn thing.

Go buy some other toys if you have some $$ burning a hole in your pocket.

yah I agree....I think your next mod should be to drive the car?

but if you really want to mod it further, get some springs to help the wheel gap out. A pair of eibach should do the trick

I'd say go for the gold-emblem package, a nice faux-leather landau top, some whitewalls, curb-feelers, and maybe a nice mirror tint.

That'd really set the thing off.

Calm down guy... Nobody dissed you or your mods. Just becuase no one sayd "oh wow, you have LED dome lamps, can you post pics" doesn't mean they are being UN-supportive.
