Default Typical 1st Mod

What is it for everyone?

Tint
CAI
Clear Bra
Speaker Upgrade
Head Unit Upgrade
Subwoofer
Bigger/Sportier Wheels
Stickier Tires
Exhaust
Rick's "S" Badges

Any recommendations?

I'm leaning towards the Clear Bra first followed by speaker or subwoofer upgrades.

Thanks!

arawok -- there have been about 5 of these discussions in the last week ... you might not get a big response, and this is likely why. take a look around and i think you'll find everything you are looking for.

peace in the middle east,
brian

ps. CAI for me

I thinlk a good first mod should be a Custom Turbo kit. Quick and easy to install.
















hehe J/K
The clear bra sounds like a good one. Can't go wrong with protection from rocks chips. But in reality there really is no set "first mod" It's all on preference. For some it's a front lip and wheels for others it's a Supercharger and a Comptech diff. Figure out where you plan to go and what you plan to do with your car then consider what mods would best suit your lifestyle.

Speaker Upgrade
Head Unit Upgrade
Subwoofer

You gotta have tunes when you're driving with the top down. Tint won't matter during the summer, no one will ever see it so you can wait a few months (depending on where you live), after that, go with exhaust, CAI/SC/Turbo and suspension. The rest is pretty minor and can be done whenever.

Sorry marcus have to disagree with you on this one.
CAI should be the first mod. Nothing kills the pleasure of driving this car like heat bog. I can hear my stock system just fine (over my N1 exhaust) if I have the windows up (when on the hwy) and can hear just fine driving around town. In the end up to the owner, but experience heat bog enough times and you'll wish you had the CAI.

An X brace isn't a bad first mod.
