The aftermarket industry, and your car aren't going to go anywhere while you pay off the debt. You'll always have time after you're in the clear to do some modding. I know it's difficult to not mod a car after you've been doing it so much on another one, but you've gotta think for a second here dude.

Just my $0.02

Great advice. Its sad that its REALLY hard to do.

Car is lookin great TNK, you HAVE to get the top of the car paitned black!

i agree with those guys....why not just keep all the parts you have now....or even sell some of them and just drive the skunk how it is...don't do anything to it and just pay some bills off or down alot....

3 years down the road you will thank your self for it when your a driving a nice vehicle that you want and are not killing yourself to afford it

i am keeping all the parts i have now. the only things i got rid of were theseats because i needed stock ones, and the muffler. everythign else is getting swapped over. and as i said, the car NEEDS exhaust, cuz the header/downpipe/shorty glasspack combo doesnt exactly cut it. and the gas mileage SUCKS becasue of the tranny problems. and i can get a steal of a buy on a 1g tranny and parts for a 5 speed swap

I liked the skunk/panda better with the SRT wheels...

Looks pretty good, but Sasha looked better!
