Mods I have ordered/installed since my "I am retiring from the world of mods" post

It has been less than two weeks since my I declared that I was done modding my car. Yes, I am a fickle, self-contradicting buffoon.

Berk Intake
Frankencar midpipe
Mobil 1 gear box oil (ridiculously overpriced tranny fluid)
Pioneer 3 way coaxials
New floor mats
Home Depot valence (painted to match grill)
Repainted front grill
Custom painted cigarette lighter plug (I painted it to perfectly match the stereo and climate control *****!)

When will the madness stop?!?!?

It never ends. You got the "car cancer". What do you think about the Franken Mid-pipe? Recommend getting it?

My cigarette lighter mod

The mod I am most proud of....My matching cigarette lighter. That "Power Outlet blah blah blah" plug was too cheesy for my taste. (It's Rustoleum Stainless Steel plus clear coat if you are interested.)



Havn't received my Frankencar midpipe yet, but I heard a lot of good things about it so it'll be here by week's end!

Yeah, the cig mod is very cool. Now, how about a brushed aluminum dash kit to go with it...umm...not that I'm trying to give you anymore ideas. I'm sure you will be retiring again soon.

I had a dash kit in my other 2000 Max and I had always regretted putting it on. I liked it on the places that had recessed areas like the side vents and the shifter area, but I wasn't too keen on how I
could see the sides of it around the radio.
