Default Income Tax Return plans

So like everybody, im ready for income tax returns. Plans for mine r to just get my baby running.

From everything ive read, and described to mechanics, I need to have my vacuum hoses replaced. I suspect $30 for replacement hoses, and then however much to have them installed since I dont have my own shop. Then a new factory amp is needed also.

Whats everybody planning for theyre returns if u get to use them on your SC?

[QUOTE=Lexiana93;6914226]like everyone keeps telling me it takes time.

I know thats the truth for sure. But my Lexus was bought as a project car and I know that bills come first so the going will be slow. But having it done slowly will pay off eventually. Plus gives time to really think about what I want done.

My original plan was to get everything reupholstered to an all black interior. I just hate to deal with cleaning the tan interior every now and then, and I can't stand seeing the dirt on it so I can't help myself cleaning it all the time, it just drives me crazy. But then I figured I'm still gonna need to buy the black plastic parts 'cause I don't wanna paint them and good luck to me if somebody would sell me just the black plastic parts and I hate the look of painted parts, so why not just wait for a clean all black interior and buy the entire thing.

A friend is discouraging me to buy PBM's 'cause they're so stiff, but that's what I figured since our cars are so heavy. IDK anymore, but still love the looks of it.
