Nice start bud! One thing I don't like (I just took care of it on my car) is all the God-damned chrome on the SXT's, and you just added a bunch. I'd paint the chrome grill parts body color, and paint the grill mesh flat black. That would look good IMO.

Also, if you want a nice even drop on your car and don't wanna spend $200 on springs, go here: http://www.tirerack.com/suspension/susp ... perfCode=S

I have these on my car, but I paid $115 for them (just went on clearance for $50, bastards). They ride VERY nice and give nice drop without being too low. They also will work with your stock struts, so you don't have to upgrade unless your stockers are junk. They are definately worth the $50 plus shipping!

Got any wheels picked out?

Nice yo. Supertrick said it straight up on the grill.

As for the springs, I really like the eibach, haven't really scraped that much, but then I'm really careful about that not happening.

Any ideas on exhaust?

Heeyyyyy... That's like my car's distant cousin.

Coming along nicely minus the grill stuff... Time for some wheels & springs!

looking good so far

why are those springs so cheap?

supertrick_05 · Post by **supertrick_05** » Sun Jul 29, 2007 11:03 pm

They don't make them anymore and they want to get rid of them...hence the clearance sale. There is absolutely NOTHING wrong with them, trust me. They are made by H&R, so that's gotta tell you somethin!

Thanks everyone. Im very interested in the springs now...Anyways here is a pic of what im thinking about doingg (photoshop). Painting the chrome trim around the grills black, and the rims im looking at are mB Seven Xs. They probably wont be that big, but i just judged by eye at the time 17" but in the pic they look more like 18s lol.
