Default I Have Started To Mod!!

I have started to mod on my car already. I have ordered the fog light parts and I'm gonna be waiting for those to arrive. I have gotten the tint done and received the F-Sport intake tube.

From my dealer it is $385 but I'm not paying for the parts, as my sales guy is picking up the tab for this. I only have to purchase the garnish and the bulbs and the custom wiring. which would be around $120 out of my pocket. so its fairly close to Nigels price of $485 for everything. I would get it from Nigel as the price will be more at your dealer. PS the parts guy said the fog lights are for an RX is that true for those part numbers given by joeZ

If you get wheels, please don't jump on the bandwagon and get Vossens. Be different and get something else. But as previously stated, that mod bug will bite hard!

How involved is the install. Does the kit come with a new stalk or do you just wire a toggle switch and mount it somewhere down low on the dash?

I don't think I will buy rims, I'm probably gonna stick with these F-Sports wheels. Can't be certain though.

I heard that the hardest part is the attachment to the OEM stalk. Yes the kit or option 3 I believe comes with the stalk, you can wire a toggle switch as they say its easier that way. I want an OEM look so I'm going for the harder method. I will update you all when the parts arrive and I get it installed. Funny I called my Vinyl guy to wrap the center part of my bumper in black gloss. hope it looks great when finished.

LIES!!! Vossen's Bandwagon is the only bandwagon worth jumping on. IMO the most masculine wheels to compliment the GS & F-Sport styling.

So update I just found out that the F-Sport intake makes you lose the sound generator, so I returned that and now I'm on to looking for that lip from Japan, I think I may black gloss wrap that and add an LED turn indicator, we shall see.

I wanted to sport BC racing but the exchange rate ain't that great. Will keep an eye out on vossen precision series. LED will look good IMO. Do the quad exhaust!
