So I want a roof spoiler on the G and it's hard to find one thats a decent price and not 600 bucks so I went to the ole ebay.

http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/Paint...item2a0fc2762d

Came across this one, I like the shape and design of it but the fitment probably sucks since its ebay. I know our roof line isn't straight but most of the sellers detailed feedback says it fits pretty well, anyone got any input?

LEDS!!!!! Got a quote from luxury mods for a full LED kit from our cars, $165 shipped.. holy *****!! As you can tell, I'm on a budget to make this car look sex. Found a seller on ebay, and was wondering if anyone has dealt with him before and how his product is.

http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/1998-...item3a654589ef

I'm all about genuine products and good quality but if i can save a buck or two, why not, right?


Just got my TTE lip in the mail, waiting on my window visors and I'm gettin my windows tinted once it warms up so I got plans to come.

While I'm here I should ask, I want some damn neck pads! Wish I had black interior but I got the tan, might end up forking out the extra cash but anyone want to point me in the direction of a couple of options as far as tan pads go?

I wouldn't buy LED's from eBay because they may be cheap and go out, but then again it never hurts to try. I've heard from people ordering on eBay and their LED's still going strong, so never know, maybe they're just as good.

Btw I think the luxury mods full LED kit includes a lot more than what the one on eBay is offering? I think they send you footwell, dome, doors (lower), rear door entry (those are the upper ones I think?), trunk, and inner trunk lights..

The kit includes
- Maps = 2x 18SMD panel
- Dome = 2x 18SMD panel
- Front/Rear Doors = 4x 6SMD panels
- Rear Entry = 2x 12SMD panels
- Trunk = 1x 18SMD (fits 24SMD with the cover off)
- Driver/Passenger foot = 2x 1SMD #74
- License Plate = 2x 4SMD Top LED

for 160 shipped. thats a pretty penny just for some leds. Prob just gunna save this for last when i dont know what else to buy for my car lol

Well to each it's own.

That doesn't sound to bad to me to fully convert the inside of your car to LED, but then again when I first started looking at LED's and whatnot I thought that $13 for one light was a bit much on V-LED's.

And yeah might as well do that. If you have other plans that you want done first then go for it. Save it for last.

Yea 160 for a full kit isn't bad, but I'd rather put that towards something else haha To be honest I'll probably end up buying them anyway since im on a spending spree with the G

Anyone have an input on that roof spoiler?
