Alright, so I'm new here and I just bought an 00 SS from my dad last month. Everything is stock, the only thing I've added so far is 15% window tint, and I also had to get an old wheel bearing replaced, it has 120,000 miles on it and runs exceptionally well for the mileage. I've been thinking about installing head light/tail light covers, a cold air intake system, and a new exhaust system, I'm only 19, so would this be too much power for a teenager? And how much will the sytems really affect my performance?

hmm, not sure if this also applies to new members but you go to your "User CP" top left side of the page and add an avatar or sig pic..

For new members there is a 5 day / 10 post rule to be able to access other areas of the forum. I'm not 100% certain though.....
