Well I ran in to some money so Intake(srt) and exhaust(HKS) this month for sure now.

My aero kit was $270 from Carson so I got a steal there, that will kill my ulgy gold package grill then rebadge the back with black/chrome or Debadge it. Then deside on the lowering kit. L-tuned or ???

Time to do before pics thats for sure.
