Everyone's always posting about the big things, i thought i might post a little something about the small things. I look around and i see some people doing some very cool things to their car that make subtle but very unique looks to their cars. If you've done something like that share it with the community!! i'd like to see what you guys have done and it might spring up more ideas for not only myself but for others as well. i have yet to do something to my 8 as it is in the shop right now :( but.... i have done some lighting and i have more to come! pictures will come soon in preparation for the warm weather (new wheels coming soon too)

OK, I'll bite. Here are a few of my small mods:
Lighting: All 194 bulbs inside and out are white LEDs, HID bulbs are Philips Ultinon 6000K, fog bulbs are PIAA Plasma Yellow.

Some custom red LEDs inside, footwell lights which you can kind of see in this pic, plus coin holder light.
