*Time To Single Out Your Favorite Mod*

With the extreme variety of mods we all got here on the .org, I'm asking you to pick you're ONE favorite mod that you've done to your Max.

For me, my favorite thing to do when driving is listen to my music with the two 10 inch Rockford Fosgate subs I put in and they really pound...we all know how badly our cars rattle...I spent lots of money installing dynamat in the entire trunk, rear deck, and seatbelt clips and I can honestly say that there is not one single rattle on the outside or inside at any volume level which is quite the accomplishment for our cars and it makes listening to it that much more enjoyable..however if i answered this question in 2 weeks it would be my Stillen Kit

Well, i don't have any performance/suspension mods on my car. Overall, from what i've always noticed, a nice tint is always the first step in making any max look great right away.

Lol, I am joking. I figured the claims in my last statement would make it overly obvious.
I don't have that installed. Performance wise, intake is about all right now.

i was wondering since i had an argument with someone in another thread about how the module (same kinda thing) gave gains. i thought he was kidding too until he started getting upset cause he got frustrated he couldnt prove it. his claims were just as crazy

forget what i picked last time. anyways, my favorite as of now are the DDEs.

the car gets a good amount of compliments and questions in general even though there's not much done to it, but the DDEs solicit the most attention.

this weekend alone at the gas station, bank, parking lot, wendy's drive through, people asked what year is the car, did it come like that etc. i found it kind of funny (flattering even) since most of my mods are meant to look factory.

As of right now -- I would have to say the Magnaflow tips. But considering I just picked up my Cattman RSB today, that might change soon.
