Lookin for ideas/input on mods for my car
Sunday, October 14, 2007 4:47 PM
since the weather has gotten cold and @!#$ty, im starting to make plans for next season for maybe some mods...i dont know yet but i wanted input, on some ideas you guys had, im pretty open, i just want some broad ideas......i might do some leds, maybe underglow, idk, i wanna stay away from lowering because the crappy snow we get here, and no body kits...other than that let me kno btw, its a 91 sunbird convertible (duh ik my sig but its a 91) lol

well, the first thing to think of.....what are your goals? is this just a daily driver you would like to add a little cosmetics to? or is this a car you want to show/race with? i assume neither based on no kits or lowering, but thats the best place to start.

my immediate suggestions would be rims, lowering(keep stockers and do a direct swap for winters), and maybe some interior upgrades. intake is a good/easy/reasonably cheap mod to take care of. maybe an exhaust. those are my personal starting points for any car.

^^oh snap....your not far from me...in buffalo so i know what ya mean about the snow

you could always try and look into a lip kit that is removable for winter as well. or maybe a Z kit if they are interchangable

what color is the car?

you could always bring her down to buffalo, and me and my partner could paint it for you...and cheaper than pretty much any shop you'll go to.

for reference you can see pics of my car that we painted here:

sweet ride, looks clean and solid! I used to have a sunbird, it was a pretty good car, now I got a sunfire. i would go to some engine and exhaust mods, those engines have good potential for upgrades and lots of torque. neons sound pretty cook too. Hey how did you make such a kick ass sig with the cool writing? It looks killer
