The easiest one?
searching is a GREAT mod to most people..
seriously, though, I will give you one, for free!!
knuaberize, or knuaberizing your doors... search it up under the Aesthetics forum, when you search.

I beg to differ.. I have seen multiple shots of NON SVT 'tiques that look rather nice, actually.

ahhh....but back to the question at hand!
a few simple mods? well you could-
- de-badge the trunk lid
- use pre-98 sail panels
- paint your grill ring
- mesh your grill
- side marker install
- sylvania silverstar highs in the low beams
- tint your windows
- deep pockets would get you wheels and tires
probably many others (is your '98 a true '98...or a decontented 98 1/2? in which case you might add in a dash clock, lock for the glove box, rear overhead light, etc)
others will chime in i am sure. good luck and have fun making your 98 your own and uniquely yours! by the way, checking the how-to's should give you ideas.....lakeside

thanks for the great suggestions, and i THINK mine is a decontented 98 1/2, by dash clock do you mean a seperate clock from the radio, ive seen it on other 'tours but not mine and I dont think i have a lock on glovebox, not sure about the overhead light but probably not
also, if this is right, where could i get a dash clock from? ebay?
