tirerack.com - a good set of those rims + tires will easily (very very very very easily) kill off most if not all plus more of your leftover $1100. tires can be $150 a piece easily.

and it's gonna cost an assload of money to change all you interior panels unless you find something with the entire interior in good shape at a junkyard. might be cheaper to sell your car and buy a different car with the interior you want than to get all new seats and interior.

he's right. even if you don't have instructions, you could install it. acer and i put my K&N on with no instructions. took about an hour, but it was mad simple. just a pain to screw the bolts and stuff on due to both of us having sausage fingers.

I got my lowering springs/shocks/struts from there, I got everything for about 450, they do have good prices and sometimes they have deals online that they match in the store.... I havent had anything installed there but ive heard from a few friends that they do good work.... everything I buy I install myself the only thing I havent was the exhaust which I had a well known muffler shop do...

The only real advice on this I can give is STAY AWAY FROM MIDAS! They wanted to charge me $900 for mine. I got a local independant shop to do it for about $600.00. That included a custom made X-Pipe and Flowmaster 40 series mufflers. Go to the sound clip gallery at the top of the V6 forum page. I have a sound clip there of mine accelorating from 50 to about 70-75mph.
