Hey guys, new to the forums, just wanted to post some pics up of my baby girl.

Any suggestions, recommendations, mod advice, is APPRECIATED!

Pictures here: imgur DOT COM/a/pajFv

Potential projects:
Swap headlights: "JDM blacked out" or Ebay halo ones
Re-do tints: 90 bucks for all four + back, thinking of going 20-25%
Weather guards: doors and sunroof
Intake: K&N 69 series
Magnaflow Cat-back

Anything else?

I don't see any pictures but, ill suggest that you don't get halos there ugly in my opinion and also save up to get some coilovers.

Check the link up in the OP. My pictures were too large to attach and I can't post links...:(

I was actually leaning more towards the blacked out lights.

Welcome to the site.

Enjoy.

Start with suspension, work your way up from there.

It's a clean place to start from. paint still looks good. Black housing is real easy to do, it cost 40 and under to do. check out the diy section for a step by step.
but essentially you bake the headlight, sealant melts, pull lens off, take out housing, sand, primer, paint, dry, put back together and into the oven to re-seal it.

I would do that for now, and have retros as an option later. but no ebay halos.

Her paint looks great. I'm a terrible photographer, and she was a little dusty in some of those pictures.

I'll take a look at the DIY section now.

There are some pics of her now in the original post, I just can't post links...and my photos were too big somehow.

Rest assured, I will continue putting more up as I do work on her.

Did you put in the catback yourself?

Nice starting point. Black housing and coils are definitely what I would do first. Don't rush into anything and do it right the first time.

I should have really taken my advice haha. I went with springs originally and I'm not pleased.
