-bp engine swap + custom exhaust and air intake (currently in process!)
-catch can and slim visors from jesse
-interior work (previous owner did not know how to take care of a car):front seats (originals ripped to shreds) , middle console (original busted), and good cleaning.
- clarion audio system (currently only has crappy front and back speakers and NO cd player or anything)
- body work: rear and front lips, MS side skirts, wrap around spoiler, and paint
-17'' rims ( have my eyes on a set of DRAG DR9 rims)
Thats the plan for my winter. Hopefully all will fall through smoothly. Can't wait for summer!
