)Hi,
Figured I'd start this to track what I've done (and plan to do) to my car.
When I bought it:

Fair bit brighter! There are a load of things I'd like to do with the car though, and I've tried to separate them into "must haves" and "wish list" - one is things I'm definite about doing, the other things I might fancy doing should funds and opportunity present themselves :lol:
Must Have
----------
Uprated ARBs
Lowering Springs
TTE Bumper
TTE Rear Lip
TRD Side Skirts
18 inch Aero Sport wheels
Uprated Discs & Pads
S/S Dials (Group Buy coming up
)
HKS Silent Exhaust or Blueflame
K&N Filter
Strut Brace stuff
**Full Paint Correction etc ** -- This one I do need, anyone know where I can get this done in Scottishland? Guildford & Christian are a bit far for me :lol:
LED up the interior lights
Wish List
---------
Supercharger or Turbo
Double DIN HU with all the fruit :biggrin:
Convince Me I Need Them?
--------------------------
Coilovers
Quick Shift
Braided Steel brake lines
That should do it for now I think... I'm open to suggestions for additions to the list - obviously these will be done over quite some time :lol:
Anything I missed? (Thanks for the suggestions so far guys; keep 'em coming)
coilovers instead of springs go on you know you want tooooooo:wink:

Also missed out upgrading the air filter, none of you caught that one though :p
I'm open to being convinced though... what exactly is the difference?
Exhaust! Knew there was something

I'm not sure that coilovers would be worth it for me, I'm not looking to go so low the thing scrapes :lol: the kids might complain

Sports grille & repositioning the horns was something I thought about, but I'd prefer a TTE bumper instead - In the snow we had a couple months back I dinged the bumper with a Transit's tow bar, so I chose to take that as a sign that I should replace the bumper rather than get the sports grille
