shaker hood, rear slats and interior bling.
I assume "rear slats" are louvers, if so, got 'em already.




You are correct sir. I used the term slats so as not to confuse anyone thinking rear meant the rear 1/4 windows.

Go for the headers. If you do go with wheels don't get another set of stock wheels. If you plan on putting a Whipple on you're going to need more meat in the back, so the stockies would be a waste of money.

Kooks LTs will set you back more than $1k..

If it were me, I'd stop spending money on lots of little stuff, and just bank it till you can get the FI rig you want. Having an additional 150 HP will bring a much bigger smile to your face than a set of wheels or a hood..

I gotta go with wheels on this one. Even if it means saving some more $$$ first. Wheel/tire combo changes the entire image of a car.

make sure your desired supercharger setup will work with the CDC shaker! Not all of them will.

Suspension, lca's,lca brackets, panhard bar, gears will all go well with the S/C. Wheels and tires would be a nice touch now. Always keep in mind long term, it'll save you money .
