I think clear corners make a car look sharp... and a good dark tint... i need mine re-done. Is that possible? expensive?

Haven't done anything that really excites me so far... but if I had to pick one it'd be my suspension....

Well since my car is basically stock I would have to go with my tint. It gives the car a fierce look. I'm installing two 10 inch subs next weekend so maybe that will be my favorite mod in the near future.

Windshield washer lights, NOPI sticker, fuzzy dice, 3" lift kit (oh wait, that's how it came from the factory!), all the great paint chips to make it look like I was going off road, my bullet hole stickers, 3' wing on the back, the lambo doors, and, of course, my Type R emblem.

Ya, but my Fuzzy Dice Mod is still the best!

I'll never understand how people can say changing an air filter or adding a sub is a mod. Reality, the only things I've done that I consider mods are the FSTB, painted grill and engine cover, and intake. To put them in order, I'd have to say the painted grill is first, then the engine cover, then the intake and finally the FSTB.

I don't think it's really that difficult to understand...A mod is a modification which denotes anything that modifies the car from the way it comes from the factory...hence changing an air filter or adding a sub is indeed a mod

Still doesn't count in my mind. Like a ricer putting on a wide body kit and fart pipe on a civic. Doesn't improve the car a bit!

Modification DOES NOT mean improvement of the car. Modification refers to ANY change from the factory settings/style the car came in just like Kruppa said. But I can understand what you mean by not considering adding a spoiler as a mod, perhaps a S/C or a turbo is a mod in your book? Anyway, my fav mod is Eibach/KYB suspension.
My fav mod woulda been 2k3 HID with DDE, but too bad i live in this ghetto azz NYC where **** disappears from your car the instant you turn your back.

That's more along the lines of what I think is a mod. Changing the ride characteristics of the car. Adding S/C or T/C. headers, cams, ect. Those are mods.

It really isn't either. I figure if people are adding subs and calling that a mod, the grill and cover should be too.

You get glare from the HID's. During the day, it would be nice to have the fogs on only.
