this should be stickied since everyone's been saying it: the 1st rule to any modifications, lower the vehicle! Eibach's or if u have the $, coilovers. Lots of ideas around the forums if u take a look around. Welcome btw!

Welcome to NICO! I say stereo, but I'm in the minority on that for sure. And, a little test to see if LBC will post up his normal welcome. I'll try to do it for you:

if you look at the top of the first page, there's a sticky with member modifications. Pictures, lists, and everything. Helped me out a lot in terms of what was popular and what looks good.

Stillen is having a sale for the Eibach pro kit, $220 including shipping and handling fee. Remember that you should consider installation fees in with it if you cant do it yourself. Someone on here said they were quoted $250, which is about right if you take it to a shop. I dont really know how much shops charge for mods other than this b/c I got everything else done for free/or in exchange for food or coffee, or did it myself.

Personally, my first mods came in this order:1. Grille2. stillen cat backs (on supersale for about$700)3. Fujita short ram intake ...I dont remember how much this cost, but definitely under $150)

4. Eibach pro kit ( most ppl do this first)

Also, use search feature. Welcome!

I wish this is what it cost here. I am up in Edmonton, Canada, shopping around places for the same thing, Eibachs and alignment

Dealership quote - 6 hours labour @ 130 an hour = $730 + alignment

Other quotes - any where from 300 - 650 for the install + alignment.

FML.
