Hey everyone, my name is Thane!
just joined the forums today and thought i would start off here.

well, I'm 17, I'm a Su Chef at our local restaurant which pays for my car. My parents didn't even hand me as much as a penny.. I bought my 2004 Dodge Neon SXT in March of 2010 (i think it was March?) Its a 2.0L SOHC engine (supposedly 132 hp) i payed only $4,000 for my car which was a good deal due to the damages.

For Pictures and Modifications, i set up a garage, and i plan to update my garage with each mod i slap on my car :]

garage.php?mode=view_own_vehicle&CID=1264

Since i bought the car:
...... current mods ........
- tinted windows (back windows limo tint, driver and passenger next lightest tint, SHOULD have tinted them limo too...) ........... ($160)
- a/c repairs ......................................................... ($160)
- Maxxim Maze 17" rims (black with red pin stripe) and slapped some rubber on them as well. .............................................. ($800)
- radio from walmart ............................................ ($120)
- floor mats, seat/ seat belt/ steering wheel covers. ($40)
- seat covers ........................................................ ($40)
- headlight eyelids ................................................ ($15)
- red smoke tail lights ........................................... ($80)
....... planned mods ......
- Cold Air Intake
- Touch up interior painting
- LED interior floor lighting
- repair scratches, dents, etc.
- replace windshield
- SRT-4 hood swap
- r/t exhaust
- clear side marker lights
- engine cable cosmetics
- brakes pads (paint them red!)
- shocks

I'm sure i'll find plenty more to do with my car! This is coming from a 17 year old kid who drove a 1989 Dodge Ram Van for his first year of high school.. my friends called it the rapist van. So maybe i might be dumping money or wasting money on this car, but at least I'm enjoying it and having fun. Also, if I'm lucky, my grandfather's luck with Dodges will be passed down to me. Since he gave me his skin cancer and other crap, he might as well have passed down his luck too, right? :thumbup:
