One thing I did was take the vents on top of the dash right above the main vents paint them. They are so small and easy to get off and easy to sand as well. I painted them the same color and clear coated them for a shiny, eye-catching appearance

The real question is, how come he consistently posts as ignorantly as he possibly can and he (and the mods apparently) thinks its ok?

He posts something stupid on almost every thread or posts something negative on every thread as well. He's a problem child?

Not good at night but you can see it adds a little shine and looks better than the "flat" appearance of the plastic. I wouldn't go crazy and paint all of the trim pieces but a few here and there is nice. I also painted the door handle housing plastic piece the same color as well. Small trim pieces because they are hard to mess up. When you start getting bigger it gets into higher skill levels. Which comes and goes with me

You have fog lights? If so, you can do the fog light rewire. I just did the mod to make my covering lights always bright and I am happy with it. They used to be very dim but now they are almost as bright as my headlights so it matches a lot better.

I'm gonna bet you can find someone on here with a fog light for sale for fairly cheap if you want to replace it. I also did the cruise control always ready mod and it is so much better than having to push 2 buttons to activate it. I've not done a lot to mine, just basically the free stuff on the page Shocknawe told you about.

Just ignore the ignorant people bro, you'll learn that the ones with the dumb comments and stupid statements usually don't know jack ****, barely have mods if any, and have self-esteem issues.

There is lots you can do with your car for the cheap but it depends on what cheap means and what you are trying to do? Cosmetic things are endless, performance wise you can get some hp for the low depending on what you want to do, so just ask a more detailed question and I can throw you a good answer.

photobucket.com. gotta use a hosting site like that and then copy the "direct link" once you upload it and copy and paste it in the box that pops up after hitting the yellow postcard button.
