I can agree with tint im getting it done this summer, but im going to go with no way on the under glow...unless your going for that type of show car. Can also lower it, another thing I hope to have done in the near future.

I think this section is for suggestions to make the forum better...not your car
but I definitely think you should tint it. Helps a lot in the summer

Underglow is for show cars only.

I'd suggest the axial flow short shifter, the single best mod you can put on your car for under 300 bucks.

to each his own, if you are doing underglow, you best make sure EVERYTHING else is up to par, full molded kit with stuff under the hood to back up the bling.

if not.. don't glow. now.. a similar effect that may be nice (puddle lights) and if anyone ask or say that is ricy, say you are watching out for the ladies.

I believe it is illegal to have underglow in NYC.

Tint is Also Illegal in NYC.

Underglow I dont see it much, cops will pull you over as soon as they see it.

Tint ... I got pulled over once, 60 bux, first and only ticket outa almost year and 1/2 of my tint ownership.

Oh you ask whats next? Its your car, so make ur own mind.

Underglow/neons are so yesterday, it's all about fog kits today. It gives your car that godly looking effect with all that fog around you, get that.

I agree. If you feel the need to glow then put it in your interior. That way you can see it and enjoy it.

I'm truely convinced that the 1st and only mod you should get is the Access Port by Cobb.

Anything, after that is gravy... well there are two things that compete with that.

The Mazsport Ignition or a lite flywheel.

Take your pick between the three.

Tint is nice. I'm glad mine came with some rather dark tint. *I'm used to the 5% on my RX-7*

Other than that, used Racing Beat exhaust for cheap if you can find it?
