What's NeXt?
 
I have the exhaust and blacked out everything...what should be my next mod in yalls opinion, and why?

Here's what Im considering thus far: lowering springs and/or intake

give me your 2 cents please!

How about powder-coating the rims black and the exhaust tips too. You might be taking this black-ing out a little too far. How about adding some contrast to your car now? Just my $0.02, and I do realize that your happiness is what is most important here.

Intake, Headers or diffuser.

the wheels are black enough, lol...and i have left the tips stock so they add a little presence in the back.

Coilovers for handling, Nitrous for power.

CalitriSC Apr 8, 2011 07:43 PM

The cosmetic aspect is pretty much done. I have mine pretty much blacked out as well. Some may like it, while others obviously think it's over the top, but in the end it is your ride. In my opinion, I think the next best thing would be coilovers as opposed to springs only because I, too, have the same MY 08 and it is quite stiff for daily driving. Coilovers definitely help in that aspect, and the drop is quite nice. There are some great sets that are available (Tein Comfort Sport, HKS HiperMax, BC Racing, KW V3, etc.), so go with what you feel might be the best option for you. Also, the Joe Z intake complements quite well with the exhaust, and if money is tight, that might be the next mod to get.

On a side note, leaving the exhaust tips as they came stock looks best simply because it makes the car stand out that much more, even though it's very hard to resist those Joe Z CF exhaust tip covers :)

diffuser, Joe Z CF exhaust tips, Sikky Headers.

My vote goes for headers or springs/spacers.

Where in TX are you at?

jaslapp1 Apr 9, 2011 11:01 AM

Sikky headers and a diffuser

flowrider Apr 9, 2011 11:12 AM

Well, I've got to add my vote - PPE Headers FTW:thumbup:
