Default **** Post Your Mods Official Thread ****

Whats up CL

I am sitting at my desk thinking about my next mod, only to realize I have nothing in mind. ( OK I am lying, got a million things in mind but nothing in my current budget )
There are millions of mods out there on CL, many known and some not so much. How about we all post of your current list of mods? and edit them as you go.

I know youll have an impulse to say too many to list!
BUT
It'll be a nice display for everyone to see the hard work you've put into your car, and also help out noobs when they are learning. Even veterans who dont know whats next <<<

Also the "look what you got today thread" isnt really a place where every single member could display their mod list. You might have gotten your exhaust 10 months ago, good luck for a newbie to find that picture.


Please post the Mod list + pictures!

Vroomin, do you have an interior pics of your CF vinyl wrapped trim pieces? Looking at getting this done and was curious how yours turned out with the white interior.
