TINT!

BTW, this is the SC300/400 forum. This thread would go into the "Build Thread" forum.

Any major plans? Stuff like tint, window visors, and HID's are pretty minor. How do you wanna mod your car? You wanna go with looks and/or performance? Either are gonna be pretty expensive though :P

Let's see how the modding begins then I will move the thread.

What are the immediate plans you see coming for it? This site has everything you need to know and then some.

sorry guys for posting in the wrong section i wasnt paying attention, id have piks up already but im having a hard time posting...

i already replaced the pass LCA, and a couple bolts that were missing, i need to do the driver side as well because the car drives crooked, i ordered d2 coils and a whiteline strut bar, AGM battery and i decided to do the bfi intake instead of a short ram.

im having the stock bbs 16s refinished, the car currently sits on enkei rpf1s 18.8.5 with 2 pirellis in the front and 2 potenzas in the back. potenzas are the best tires in my opinion. car needs a wheel alignment bad!

im gunna install my sony xav 60 from my last car as soon as i get the harness and the dash kit. stock setup sucks.
i got an alpine amp that i dont know how to install, and im not sure if i should replace the speakers.

im actually not into window visors, they look cheap, but they look good on ur car

i have 6k hid's already installed, just need to mount them properly. tints are a must but i dont want cops pulling me over all day.
