Well after some carefull thought and saving more money, heres what i ordered so far. its not much, but it makes me happy untill i get some hardcore cash to blow.

1. Voodoo Magnum Spun titanium engraved shift knob
2. Comptech CAI
3. APR cf radiator plate
4. Power House Amuse dual r1 exhaust

Ill post pictures as the parts come in and after the installs. everything was ordered last week or yesterday, so i should be getting stuff by the end of the week i hope. im not sure what will be next, im thinking oem hardtop, advan 17'' rg's. possibly an oem front lip or a gp motorsports front with feels sides. i go to a lot of shows around town, so i need looks right now. next summer shes getting a nice turbo or comptech sc.

I hear you! I'm in the same boat, although, I just put in a custom stereo, and added the OEM lip, side strakes and spoiler and have ordered my Mugen thermostat, fan switch and radiator cap.

In the future, I'm looking into purchasing the Amuse R1 exhaust (still debating between that and Mugen or JIC or something similar), Rick's Xbrace and eventually, a Comptech supercharger. But those things are further down the road. I'll probably get the exhaust within a year, but I'll wait longer on the supercharger.

i cant do the SC untill its paid off. i know between the exhasut and hartop i could use that cash for the SC, but i rather get the other parts now that will benefit the SC down the road.

waiting for UPS sucks i might add. nothing came yet.

Finally got one in yesterday.



APR cf panel wasnt hard to instal at all. took about 5 minutes to figure out once you figure out the weather stripping and how it goes.

BTW. i just ordered a dual r1 amuse exhaust. that should be here tuesday and ill have pics up right away. as for the intake and shift knob, still no word.

Where did you get your APR radiator cover and do you know if it will fit a MY04?
