Default Got a new ride

Ok guys i used to drive an 92 sc300, which got totaled by stupid towtruck. So ive spent weeks looking for one and since i have yet to find the one i want i picked up a 99 Q45. Right now its my daily, but i want to mod it. I need to keep its daily drivability for now but any suggestions. I was going to get Insurance springs and some 19's just to give it a clean look.



I love VIP.
