Do you remember your first mod that got you started? When I first got my tour and joined the boards there wasn't much out there yet for our cars.

The first thing I did was the dual exhaust mod for my se. I got the exhaust hanger for the pasenger side and two dynomax mufflers put on, I went cheap 1st to see how it would come out, later on I put the svt kit on and then went for a better set up. Now I have the stainless sho y, magnaflow high flo cat, magnaflow res and mufflers with borla tips.


so post your first ever mod!!!

Ya know I haven't done that mod yet .I'll have to get of my ars and do it. It's pretty cool thinking back to what started the mod bug .

I'm pretty sure Mike's first mod was also the foglight mod.
Either that or it was the KKM intake (which has since been replaced).

First mod on the GL was Mike's old SVT rims.
First mod on my Cougar was clear side markers with amber bulbs instead of the stock amber side markers.
