Usually when it's cheap, it's not a big upgrade.

If there's any maintenance on something that needs to be done, do that first.

And make sure to buy all of those maintenence parts while you are at Home Depot too...?????

I mean I see your trying to help and be nice and all, but, I dont know about you but the "Home" depot is not where I would buy my "car" parts...

i don't think he was implying that the op get his maintenance supplies at home depot, just to take care of maintenance before he goes ahead with cheap a** lips and plywood diffusers.

If a person is really that far off (meaning the OP) and is looking to buy other cheap stuff at Home Depot like he (OP) originally said, then it is fair to assume that he isnt gonna know not to look at home depot for the maintenence stuff...

i was only defending what az said. if the op is that much of a moron, i'd convince him to look at a paseo as a better, more faster platform...

negative, ghostrider.

"low budget mod" and "home depot" do NOT go hand in hand. youre working on a car, not building a deck. i would anticipate "im going to pepboys, what mods can i get" or "im going to a yardsale, what mods can i get" (because at this point i KNOW i could find cooler mods at a yardsale than at a HOME DEPOT

wtf is the point of this omg...

To the OP buy whatever you need for your house?? Buy a tool kit then go next door to Kragen, Autozone, Advance auto parts, and buy parts for your car.

Threads like these make me feel embarassed.
