Default Upgrade time! Phase 3

I finally got back from traveling for a few months and decided that, you know what?, its time to spend some freakin dough on the ride!! What better excuse for some upgrades is there than to simply celebrate the experience of another beautiful west coast summer before having to return to classes once again in the fall. I notice that many of you are from the southern california area and I am looking for some expert opinions on where you guys think I should obtain and install the following items.

SRT Intake
Ugo Roof Spoiler
Tein CS coilovers - already PMed Double Whoosh on these
Tein EDFC
OEM wood shift **** with black leather - dealer says they're $400!!

I've had bad experiences with random garages putting on parts that I've ordered online and am trying to find some good reasonable places that can assist in any continued modding. I had a wheel/tire place put on eibach springs and when they were done the right side was 1/4in higher than the driver side. The dude said it was b/c of old stock shocks so I had the lexus dealership put on l-tuned shocks... for $700! Guess what, it didn't fix the problem. Now I say screw it, time to get coilovers. Anyone got any suggestions on some good autosport places that are reasonable for installing suspension & intake? Any information would be appreciated.

SRT intake - Try here:

UGO Roof spoiler - PM SUPRATRD fast. They don't make these any more. You'll have to see if Steve ordered some extras for this last final batch from UGO.

Tein CS and EDFC - DoubleWhoosh is the man. He is Todd from TM Engineering and he can take care of all your install needs too.

OEM wood/leather **** - try posting an ad in the CL classifieds. Or try eBay.

If you want the Tein CS you better contact Todd (Doublewhoosh) fast as they are probably almost sold out of their last batch. For the UGO spoiler you may be just a little late, unless someone wants to sell theirs. Good luck in your search for parts
