OK FL peeps, I need some help. Elaine and I have been going back and forth on what to do with the Spa rocket. We where going to buy some Volk LE37s in black for her, but are having problems spending the $3000 to get them (we can afford them, but damn that's a lot of money). So I'm contenplating going the untimate sleeper route. Of course under the hood will be blinged to the max, but I'm thinking about going stock on everything, wheels, suspension, body...you name it. What are your opinions? Should I go sleeper or should I just not think about it and go for broke (literaly )

Keep it sleeper..Nice Drop,Volks and a clean exhaust. And under the hood have the biggest supercharger you can afford, that way they'll never see ya comin. Just my .02. By the way great choice on the wheels.

Supercharging it is out of the question...I all ready have a rather large turbo on it though

If I go sleeper it's going to be true to form...nothing will look like it has been done to the car from the exterior, no volks, no drop, nothing. Right now I even have a full 3" exhaust that looks stock all I need to do is change the mufflers to something a little quieter and I'll be set.

It's just a hard desision to make. A sleep is never appricated until it walks all over you, and I kinda like the "nice car" comments. On the other hand, all the money that I would have to spend to make the car "show" ready would make it just about untouchable on the street. Hmmmmmm what to do...

Lets go for broke man. I know I will be slower to buy than you but, I like the nice car comments myself, even though my car is rough around the edges. I voted for blingin' but only do what you can when you can.

there is no need to mortgage the house just so Bobby the snot nosed pimple boy at QSL can walk away from your car with wood. Him and his posse are just going to badmouth you behind your back anyway, because they are haters.

You should be able to find a set of LE's for cheaper than that. Lets discuss your options when you get a chance

Hey bro,
got to do what makes you happy in the long run. You can allways change it later. I think you did this before.

So it is all good. Listen to the car. It will tell you what it wants next.

About as long as I kept it supercharged

I know, I know, I change my mind like a woman I just can't seem to get the car right in my head. I thought I knew what I wanted, but I'm starting to realize that I just don't have the patients or the motivation to build the car to the level I want it. So I'm just tring to figure out if I should go stock on the outside, or should I doctor it up abit. I'm just don't want to get on the never ending road of modifications.
