Welcome to the EM2 game d00d. Get ready to spend the next 3 years hating the motor it came with.

YuckerDisMe 05-11-2007 02:16 PM

depends on what you want and how much you want to spend on them.

Rufus 05-11-2007 02:19 PM


YuckerDisMe 05-11-2007 02:19 PM

nope i was at home getting my windshield replaced, had a crack about 2 feet in it.

nick_slzr 05-11-2007 02:21 PM

i want a carbon fiber wing and hood.

Rufus 05-11-2007 02:22 PM

No you don't

nick_slzr 05-11-2007 02:24 PM

why not?

Rufus 05-11-2007 02:28 PM

Ah I didn't want to have this talk with you son but you force me:

You will dump countless dollars into that thing to realize that it just doesn't go fast. As fast as you'd like it to look, a stock minivan could beat it. Then a day will come when you'll want it to look stock again because you begin to understand how clean looking it can be stock with a nice drop. The you'll spend countless dollars returning it to stock becuase it looks better and doesn't KILL your resale. Then you'll look back and tell yourself that you could have had a G35 for all of the money you've dumped into it.

I've done it all man.

Drop it, nice wheels, few tasteful add-ons and pocket the rest for the 09 Camaro... at least that's what I'M doing...

YuckerDisMe 05-11-2007 02:28 PM

its up to you if you want to get a wing, but if someone walks up and smacks you you'll know why :)

Rufus 05-11-2007 02:30 PM

Lets think about this wing....

You'll spend a waste of money on a wing that performs no function and forces you to drill into your trunk. Now on top of being clowned by everyone, you'll have reduced the market that will be interested in your car when you sell it, and IF you decide to remove it you'll spend MORE money filling the holes and repainting the trunk which by then won't match the rest of the car.

nick_slzr 05-11-2007 02:34 PM

lol man your right it would suck to do all that and realize it in the end but i dont know about the mini van beating me

Rufus 05-11-2007 02:39 PM


YuckerDisMe 05-11-2007 02:41 PM

i never get tired of seeing pics of your car :)

nick_slzr 05-11-2007 02:41 PM

where did you get the headlights man?

YuckerDisMe 05-11-2007 02:43 PM

there the stock lights but painted

Rufus 05-11-2007 02:45 PM

Ah just wait until the lip kit is painted

nick_slzr 05-11-2007 02:45 PM

sick they look nice

YuckerDisMe 05-11-2007 02:46 PM

i just got some fog lights but there installed yet

Rufus 05-11-2007 02:48 PM

Easy to do...

YuckerDisMe 05-11-2007 02:51 PM

yeah just havent had the time

rum151 05-11-2007 03:40 PM

like yucker and rufus advise..

aem is a good intake, dont waste ur money on pointless items for youre car. keep it clean stock and put a nice drop on that biotch!
i prefer a front lip and side skirts to top it off and call it a day.

depends on how long you have the car maybe a few more years or something if the k20a's go down in price you can do a swap but i wouldnt recoomend it now. just keep the 31 mpg engine and dro pthe car nicely and youll be fine.
