[It's Just Eric]

intake resonator removal, permanent dash vents (heat comes through dash vents, not feet, prettymuch any kinnd of weight reduction

Hood strut fix (whichever of 3 you choose)

This might wind up being broken down into categories at this rate... performance, function, aesthetics?

Any link for this one? My wife would love it!

Sorry for the incorrect "greater than," after 1AM my brain starts to go all mushy.

If you guys provide links to threads/how tos/lockers, I'll try to update the first post to keep it all together.

I see "redlightingsvx" as the one thread author, and "letitsnow" as the other.

In addition, threads on the internet are just that - public property on the internet, anyone can view or link to them.

I don't wanna start a boxing match, but interior color changes have been around for a good long while...

The jury is still out on whether or not the lighted grille is under $100. Post #35 in the first thread claims it can be done for under $100, though there are no extensive "How To's" as of yet.

Changing interior light colors is less than $100
