yo, nice ride i suggest what you stated at car domain about rims and droping it. check out ebay i've see coil overs pretty cheap for your ride. also i think they now make body kits for that year.so it will bolt right on. maybe you can get some graphics or work on the interior like paint the dash, shift knob, or vinyl stuff out like your door panels. thats my thoughts. damn how did you hit 15.4 with just an intake and muffler? what your secret. lol peace god

Back to the subject of hookin the Guru's whip...

Tints- if you're patient and practice a few times, you can do your own tints. You can get the stuff @ walmart like $20.

Dyes/paints- Just take out parts of your interior and repaint them. You can even do your hub caps it you wanna.

magnets/vinyl graphics~ sure, it's 2F2F, but it gets attention. Or find an airbrush artist to do something on your car. most artist do work for trade. (use your imagination)

Antenna balls~ you don't see too many of these nowadays. Set your ride appart from the pack by sticking something on the end of your antenna, but be sure to take it off BEFORE you go through the carwash

Hood ornimantes! nuff said.

Neons, LED's, cathods etc. Just stick em anywhere and watch people bug out @ night

Default Coil overs

If you do buy coil overs......be sure to buy some bad ass shocks. Thats what most people forget.

yup- always get KYB GR2s to back new springs or coilovers.

RIMS are the single most effective thing for setting a car apart.
