    what to do...

    Guest-only advertisement. Register or Log In now!
    So I have an anniversary coming up, and my women doesn't know what to get me. I have a couple thoughts on mods but wanted to know next best low cost mod. I say low cost because I know people will go crazy and say things that cost a couple grand or more...

    I am looking at the under 500 range.I have tint and a sub added so far, I am moving to florida so I am thinking part of it to be a piano black filler plate or do I go with the mesh blackout grille, I know the blackout mesh grille has a spot for a euro but how bad does it look empty ?

    My next thought was put it towards a chip, I only have 16k on my car but would love some more power and know I can probably find a good shop in SW FL.

    Or do I just do the filler plate then put the rest towards ecode headlights..


    these are the only options I am looking to do so stay on topic

    Buy a chip yourself, go drive to test out your new chip with your girl in your car, then have her give you road head as your present while you enjoy your newly chipped car pushing 18+psi
    Ignorance is bliss.

    chip...but a suspension transforms this car too. Chips are deceiving - you are capable of the same, even slightly better mpg but the extra power makes you want to step on it and burn up gas.

    yea but the second part sounds like my usual sunday drive....lol that why u tint the windows right ?

    I like the mesh front grille but worry it will look dumb if I put a euro plate on it, and I am dont want to rock a front plate in florida since I am from NY and hate having a front plate on my car for the past 10 years....

    If I chip it should I just suck it up and get a DV valve and then the filler plate...

    Chip is the first thing that i would do. Also, you can just leave your current DV until/if it breaks and then either have the dealer replace it for free with another one, or go aftermarket.

    how long is the DV covered till ? and can they handle the extra boost without leaking ?
