I've got a few plans, some materializing sooner than later, but the Spring/Summertime Mod Bug has bitten me hard, so I think I've got my whole Summer list drawn up and completed already. :)

What about you guys?

- New Wheels?
- New Body Kits / Pieces?
- Exhaust?
- Suspension?
- Brakes?
- Engine?
- Color?
- Interior?
- Audio / Video?

Let's hear about it!

hey dex i duno how dark ur factory is but maybe Tint....keep the sun out a bit??

~ Stella

I'm a full time student who has to pay for all my mods -- and I work at Auburn University's IT department, which provides me with "just enough" to pay for gas and food :) That is why my summertime mod list consists mainly of "not so expensive" items.

1. Tint
NEEDED BIG TIME ... leather is suffering because I never did this.

2. RMM or UGO STB
After the Spring Fling I realized that this little mod is definately a necessity.

3. TTE Front Lip
The only silver car I've seen with a TTE lip is Hameed's and I must say that it looks very nice. Not sure how good it would look on my stock 16's though/

4. L-Tuned Shocks & Springs
At all the meets I feel like a GS SUV. I would need wheels though ... which = more money :(

Not going to get all of these, but this is what I have in mind at the moment. My birthday is on the 26th and I'm sure all of you would love to donate to my mod fund :) ;)

I got a jump on the summertime mods with some spring modding.

Last month....
..I switched my body kit to the Veilside Executive kit
..I had my HRE's re finished with new tires
..I had the hood and fenders re painted due to rock chips

This month....
..I ordered the 14" Stop Tech big brake kit yesterday, along with rear cross drilled rotors, SS lines, and AXXIS deluxe pads.
..I dropped off my Alpine 6.5" monitors to be installed into a spare set of headrests I bought awhile ago, they should be done and in the car next week, along with my DVD player.

Now I gotta take a breath and re group before I go with my next wave of Summertime mods, but here are my plans for summer if all goes well with my cash flow.

..I need a new spoiler, I was going to go with the Veilside Executive spoiler to match the kit, but now I'm thinking about ordering the WIN spoiler(its always been my favorite, just didnt feel like waiting for it).
..I think Im going to re do my trunk set up with something a little different, not sure what yet.

and

..Last but not least, I REALLY, REALLY, REALLY, want to supercharge her before the summer is over.

By the way, I swear I am done after all of that..No more mods for me!!!;)

Brembo 6-piston (if deal comes through) ;)
Navigation

Later in Fall, supercharger.

All I know is I want to have some new stuff on for our Deal's Gap meet in September. I had such a good time at the SMokey Mountains meet and being around all the GSs there inspired me.:thumbup:

I will tell you the Tom's rear underbody suspension piece. Then my suspension is set.:thumbup:

i am getting my interior done (finally) i would also like to retint my windows, change rotors, and my windshield wiper to a set of those piaa carbon fiber pattern ones...must...stop...moding...i hate how parts for our cars cost so much...but once the part is on you forget how much it cost you, cause all you can think of is..."MAN O'L MAN SHE LOOKS GOOD!"

I'm going the whole A/V route right now.
-6.5 inch Alpine screen
-4 inch kicker component RS4s
-6 inch Alpine S drive
-Alpine 5 way amp
-PS2
-JL IB104 free air
-10%-15% Tint

Wow, my account is hurting. I'm only 16, and this whole part time job stuff is killing me! If there's a cure for the mod bug...I don't want it.

i'm gonna finish up the exterior with:
JIC kit
97+grille and maybe fogs
thinking of either repainting my car black with a flake and mirror finish or charcoal grey

I'm gonna start my interior with:
pair of bride seats and takata harnesses
cf dash kit

i'm also gonna start my motor:
tq converter
weaponr cai w/ new ecu
75 shot nitrous
start cleaning up my motor
start saving up for the supercharger available for sc4s

i've worked hard this year in school and my job, i deserve to reward myself with these. :D

an oil change

:) anything extra will be unplanned and thus an extra surprise :D

carnal...u rpost cracked me up

Anyways, I just got my Blitz Z2's installed (sizes r in my profile) For this summer, i plan on:
- Wilwood six pot brake kit up front (it will be a prototype design)
- Tein suspension (need to talk about the model, but mabye CS)
- dark tint all over
- new rear seat (stitching up top has seen better days....before the sun got to it back in '92)
- new headlamps (only if i can find a great deal on them)
- Lexus door sills (if the GB works out)

New tires :D
Replace dented sub :(
Maybe re-do whole stereo if I have time.

Just did the Tom's lower front and rear braces, a PI TC and the ATS Carbon LSD. :D Next mods will be an intake, the Tom's 6-link kit and brakes. After that I'll probably break down and get some dyna audio drivers, a nice clean amp and upgrade the sub. A supercharger remains impractical and out of reach for the moment.

Ok, so that's more than a summer list -- at least for the mods that remain. But I tend to purchase mods in bunches as the fever builds. :)

Big a$$ brakes.

1. NEW CAR! :D :D

I'm thinkin'

-new wheels (HRE 18" not sure on the style yet though...maybe 540R's)
-new GX470 (BMP/Ivory, Nav/Levinson, RSES, 3rd row...pretty much everything)
-new wheels for GX470 above (maybe HRE's too we'll see what the cash flow situation looks like and the WAF-wife approval factor)
that's probably enough for now.

Just finished installing:
1. TRD Front Strut tower bar
2. Cusco Rear strut tower bar
3. L-tuned grille and side skirts
4. TTE front lip spoiler.

Already ordered (no deep bank accounts like some of you guys ;) )
1. 6000K Philips Ultinon HID kit to replace my fogs

Planned mods for the summer:
1. 6000K Philips Ultinon HID bulbs (not the whole kit as my car already has the OEM 4100K HID's in the low beams)
2. Real wood dash kit (from http://www.exoticwooddash.com )
3. Toms 6-link rear suspension brace
4. H&R 25mm rear spacers
5. Major sound insulation in the rear to get rid of the L-tuned exhaust drone between 1.9K and 2K rpm

Depending on cash flow - might do the following:
1. Stereo upgrade - speakers and amps (not replacing the Nak head unit)

Wish list for next year: (after car is paid off! :D )
1. 19 inch HRE rims
2. Big brake kit upgrade
3. Nav system

WAF-wife approval factor

LMAO!!! :D But dang it true huh:( I see it happen to my Pops all the time

Injen Intake on order.....

Tokico Struts

Cusco or JIC STB

Tune up...Timing Belt, Spark Plugs, Gas Filter.. etc

Supra Brakes- Maybe...if I have enough cash after that...

Rims are my thing for this spring/summer. Should be ordering them sometime this upcoming week and then wait for them to be made and delivered. Then start saving up for next year and the big brake upgrade :) The mod bug never stops :thumbup:

Well kiddies i'm like the youngster. I have a cop salary so this summer it will be just wheels, spoiler(if I can find one that fits) and maybe if I'm good a carbon fiber dash or should I go with the wood grain? (the IS300 is silver)what do you think????:confused:

tein springs
tokico struts
