Default Few Recent mods

Ive added a few little things to my car to bring it out a little bit. I got some white rockers from ninosport.com

i was pretty disappointed with the quality of the rockers, they had a lot of little chips on them and they were filthy, and it looked like someone had driven over a high curb and marked the sides of them.

i called and was told i had to pay to ship them back..do you know how big they are lol i wasn't paying that!

a little Elbow grease, some polish, clay, wax, and sealer later, i have them looking pretty good. there are still a few little stone chips on them but they are very small and im going to get a touch up stick to take care of them.

once they were on, i removed my stripe.

Next, i got the Roush hood scoop. i was really hesitant at first about getting it painted. they wanted to charge me $150 to paint it but my auto teacher had a friend who did it for $50 and they are a top quality body shop so it turned out great.
The worst part was drilling through my hood, i measured about 30 times lol but got it all right! heres a few pictures i got yesterday on my drive round my neighborhood.

Before:



After:









Sorry, i get a little picture crazy lol.
whats next?
GT/CS rear bumper
Konig Beyond rims (Fat Chance)
Supercharger (its on my christmas list but my parents said no lol its not going to happen.)

Let me know what you think

Looks nice man. Thats unfotunate about the rockers but it sounds like you fixed em up pretty good. Definatly try and save up for those Konig rims, they are some awesome looking wheels, I wanted them originally. If no supercharger, get your rents to get you a nice dual exhaust set up. The ride looks real clean, keep it up!
