Question Mods!

So...I have been thinking a lot lately about doing some more mods to my car, but I need some awesome ideas. You all seem to know your stuff about cars so I figured I would ask here.

well to start. think about, do you want performance or looks? alot of people do exhausts with a CAI if your looking at performance. got anything in mind of what you would like to see?

You will get alot of good help on this category thats for sure

My monte is a 2001 ss. I have already done some mods, but it's nothing too great. Just some headlight and taillight covers, rear window decals, interior red neons, red interior paint, and different rims. I would really love to look into doing just about anything to it. I am super excited about doing some more things, I just always come up blank when I think about what to do.

you could change out the mufflers or do a full cat back. and make it sound nice and loud. you could do a CAI. for looks you could do some window tint. Maybe some vinyl stripes.

Give us a budget and a goal and we can help you out.

Example if you have $2000 to spend and want to go fast, then we can recommend saving a little more and going for a ZZP Z3 Turbo.

If your budget is more like $500 and just want to feel/hear a difference to make matters more fun, then we can recommend a nice CAI/Downpipe/Muffler swap.

And how do these motors suck??? I'm rolling 176,000 miles on mine and hardly had a hiccup.
