Default SC430 Mods

Is there anyone out there doing any mods to there SC430 or am I the only one on the planet who is still interested in the car and why does it seem almost impossible to find aftermarket stuff for the car?

Do a search on this forum and you'll find lots of folks who have done and are still doing mods to their SC430s. You just have to know what you are looking for on lots of the aftermarket stuff, as you'll find out in your forum search. You do have to remember that the SC430 wasn't a mass produced car in the typical sense of things (like the Camaro or Mustang).

what kind of mods are you doing to your car?
are you modding Wheels or are you going to make it a race car?

Personally, I think that my 2007 SC430 is just about perfect in stock form. Remember it is as close to bullet proof as a car can get.

Plenty things you can do to your SC: Backup camera, LED lighting, stereo replacement, wheels replacement, DRLs, Do the search.

ShawnOk's mod for the wind deflector is one of my favorites on here. I regret not having done it on my sc430. The only reason I didn't was because of my dislike of wiring. Shawn and his post here still inspired me to do it on a different vehicle.

thank you Shawn for sharing this. There's tons of other mods on here too.

Makes sense. Not real technological, though.

For some unknown reason, the Mods of this forum don’t want you to delete your own post.

Don’t know what are they thinking?

We have to assume they're smarter than us, that it's for our own safety, and for our own good. Like the government.

You can modify a post I believe. Edit it.

If delete is there, it's hidden. Can modify but they demand 10 characters, and not spaces.
