Mines boring but I'll get the party started. Only had the car for just a little more then a month and all I've done so far is add Vent visors, for creature comfort and added chrome valve caps aince the stems already were chrome.

Not sure of future plans, have pretty much been a bone stock person... Thinking of adding one of jarhead's trunk mat (cause they look pretty cool) and perhaps a set of the black headlights (for the same reason) but other then that???

'space my friend, you were an hour off in posting this!!!



I mod my Monte for individuality, i don't want a cookie cutter, off the shelf car. i want a car that reflects me, and my desire to be different!

while i cant list all of the mod i have done, rest assured that it's a break from the standard mold!

once im done modding, i will release my OMGWTF im done!!!1 pictures.

CALL TO ARMS!!, i want to get my baby painted, i cannot do this on my own, so if any of you wonderful MCF members would like to help me outfit my baby in a new coat of paint, i would love to hear from you! (i ask here because i know you will pour some monte love in the mix!), and if anyone does want to help me out, i will let the members of this great site design the final product!!!! (as long as it's black and silver;-P )

Yes, it reflects that I'm too cheap and lazy to make changes!

I seam to have a knack of attracting odd cars. I guess it does reflect on the owners. Were a bit odd here in Casa de JJ.

Why do i mod my cars?

Cause i can. LOL

I mod for performance because I'm stupid. The car is about .3-.4 quicker in the 1/8th mile, but the car is still slow... it would take thousands to make it go fast, and for that I could trade the car for something that is actually fast and faster already than this. I'm leaving it alone now. It's a good long range commute car for when I go back and forth from home to college every weekend. It looks good doing it, and does it reliably. All of my other money goes into my Torino
