i'll pass on the side blinkers, i dont wanna drill any more than i have to in the car and i'm not a fan of APC parts.

I know i need rims, i know i know i know. i was supposed to get some and didnt, and i have the ones in the basement that need tires, but dont have the money so on and so forth. i think i'm saving for cams first, i'm sick of having the ugliest and SLOWEST in my little clan, so performance i think it comming first.


wat do u mean "ding less"?

Cams? Why cams?
 
come on guys, i'm not dumb enough to buy svt cams for my 4 banger. i wanna get some racing cams. i found them at advance auto for about 350
 
Buying racing cams for your 13 year old 4 banger is probably about as dumb as buying SVT cams for it.
 
If I were you, I'd get a UDP. Good value, and super easy to install. Honestly no need for racing cams. Besides, I don't know if I'd trust racing cams from Advance Auto :help:
 
The outlines of your badges is the direct result of wax/impurities that have built up over the past 13 years. That, or it's clearcoat. In either case, good luck getting it off. I never did. It doesn't show in normal photographs and you have to look really hard anyways.

I would look to preserve the car instead of further modding it. Some people might defend you for sake of being the devil's advocate toward my opinion, but I lived it and I've been there.

I learned that giving a 13 year old sedan some balls is like giving grandpops Viagra, just without the possibilities of infant Aunts and Uncles.
