Maxima Mods with TAX RETURNS!!!

I was just curious about what mods you guys were going to do with your tax returns. I'm most likely going to get a cold air intake (probably the one from custommaxima.com-the Place Racing cold air). What do you guys recommend? Are any of you going to have to sell any mods if you end up owing to the government???

How much do they charge to tune the SC? Is it from Vortech or yourself?

IF I get any money back, I want a frankencar intake and a OBX Catback.

I'm going to pay a big chunk of what I still owe off on the car. Then I'll owe less than a grand. Woo Hoo!! I'm content with my mods for the time being. Next is JW ECU

Thats a good idea, I'd like to see more Maxs with the "expensive" look with the LEDs.

I replaced my rear tail bulbs with PolarG hyper-red bulbs, they look great! I've never seen LED bulbs in the tails..

I'm not a big fan of the amber up front...do they make a clear or hyper-white LED bulb as well?

check out http://www.jamstrait.com/. They have several links to retailers authorized to sell their LED bulbs.

These guys sell practically every LED bulb imaginable.

Yea, I replaced all of my bulbs with JamStrait bulbs since they come with a lifetime warranty. I got tired of the Polarg hyperwhites, plus they didn't match up well with my HIDs so I went to amber leds. I purchased some blue ones for a-pillar gauges from this Ebay seller who happens to have them for a little cheaper than the links in the JamStait site. I did get most of my bulbs from one of those links at www.myroadster.net They do happen to make white ones for those who prefer that color.

i'm only gettin $300 back, compared to the $800 i got last year. Oh well. I'm either going to put it towards payments on the car, or hold onto it and put it towards alarm/remote start.
