Default I think i've found all I need.

Sorry for all the annoying posts before, but had to learn from other owners whats crap and whats not. Well i've finally gotten into some money to spend on my car

First up is an RKsport front air damn.$240 https://www.rksport.com/main/part_de...=6&catid=4
Anyone know of websites selling these for less?

Then a brickyard type 3 peice spoiler $119 http://www.spoilersforless.com/wings/125.jpg

Cheap little gauge face plate that looks coolhttp://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/Chevy...1%7C240%3A1318

Now i cant decide between these two stereos http://www.crutchfield.com/p_158GT63...I.html?tp=5684
or
http://www.crutchfield.com/p_113MP34...U.html?tp=5684

for the muffler i was looking at a summit racing glasspack(non stainless b/c i wont have the car for that long in salt roads)

John `K.,
I think it is a great mod list 4 your Monte.
Good 2 C U doing your homework.
Stereo`s are a personal choice, and Cruthfield is a
good reliable company.
I would check local laws in Cincinnati for the light
covers to made sure they are legal there.
Keep us updated on your mod`s (pictures a plus: )
Hows the tires/brakes/suspension/engine ?
Is everything in good shape ?
Good Luck on the installs.

It is legal here, I've checked up on laws too . I might need new shocks around the summer. Also plan on buying a new K&N air filter. With my engine being a 3.1 there isn't any part that can give major performance. So might as make do with what I have. The engine runs fine and has had everything that could go wrong (hoses, belt etc) replaced. So just trying to make it look fast .

Only other thing I didnt mention was possible black racing stripes and window tintings.

The car would look great with the front spoiler and wing choice.

As far as the stereo goes, If your are going to be running a pre-amp and dual amps ( one 4 ch amp for front and back and one amp for subs only), then the Kenwood would be a good choice. If your not going to run a pre-amp, then the Sony cause it has the 3 RCA outputs needed for both amps. But if i had to choose between the 2, would probably go with Sony.

Now as far as the muffler goes, iwould go with a Flowmaster 40 and leave in the resonator. Thats the set up i have on my car it sounds great.
