    If you want my honest opinion, go for wheels and a way to lower the car. Exhaust can wait

    Same here! I'm also all about practicality when it comes to mods. I'd lower but I share the car with my wife and its bad enough something @&$# happens to it almost every month from her habits (putting purse on the roof, resting sharp or heavy boxes on the rear bumper when loading in to the trunk, driving like she stole it over rail road crossings and in parking lots, etc.) lol. I'm surprised enough the new rims I put on last week don't have curb rash already. So basically yeah, to avoid the front, rear or doors being dinged and scraped by curbs, I'm not lowering. /end rant.

    The roads i drive on would destroy my car. If i was a strict city driver i would but id rather avoid the problems. You should buy your wife a cheap beater. She has no respect and the car gods will smite her!

    My X's mom always drove as if she was in nascar and parking? Forget about it, sideways in 2 spots was a normal day lol. But I was always afraid for the cars life. Just do the right thing and get a second car man lol. Or atleast I would! The beer Gods always on my ass Id hate for the car one to be up there too lol

    I think matte black or gunmetal with flecks of red would look nice. One of the MS3 members recently got one their wheels done like that.

    I could use some imput on a new stereo deck. As much as i wod love to trust everyones input at stereo shops I wouldnt mind another opinion. I was originally looking for nothing too fancy but I am somewhat intrested in the GPS stereo decks. Whats a decent model for around $500, or less?

    Apparently a chunk is missing from a mount that holds up the transmission causing everything to be out of sync.

    My crapy rendering of what I am thinking of dipping. Please criticize and tell me what you think. If someone has a proper program to do this and is willing to help me out I would appreciate it!

    In my personal opinion (humbly, of course) doing this will look like dog crap.

    Not a fan, it doesn't go with anything and is out of place, I know your emblems are red, still doesn't go with it. If you're wanting to incorporate more red grab some rims, or paint those ones gun metal with a red lip around the edge with red lugnuts. You could also do an inch or so strip of red at the end of the spoiler. The side doesn't look good red but if you got some other lips and painted them black with a thin strip of red that could look good too. Subtle is always good, that seems out of place. That's my opinion though.. do what you want.
