Sweet... Thanks for looking. I'm leaning towards amazons recaro selection after searching for an hour. Never found that model in my searches.

I was worried about denting/ marring the seats. I usually throw a towel or blanket underneath and those usually help. Since It will be a semi permanent install, prob go with a matching blanket too, lol...

I hope this doesn't sound too ricer, but are these type of bulbs safe for the headlight enclosures? I'm thinking of switching out to something that's a lil brighter but don't want to melt the enclosure.

Yes, thought about it. Just stumbled across those while glancing across ebay. I haven't actually found a kit or know the price, but I don't think I have the funds for the HID's at this time as I'm hoping to get a hold of a rotofab cai as soon as I hear back from KYspeed.

Chuckie, I think g8's are the sickest things since 4th gens. I'm suprised not to see more here. Yours looks sweet! I hope your looking for rims and springs.

**chuckie669** · 04-17-2010, 03:56 PM

thx, ordered my rotofab CAI yesterday.Next mods purchased will be color matching blanket and recaro car seat, LOL... Holds all four of my family fantastic, and I don't feel like a weenie when driving every day by myself.

What'cha think? Oh btw, I guess g8's aren't welcome around here. I got no good sections to post my car pics.

nice car man, they are nice my buddy has one that he just has cia, programmer and some magnaflows on it and it livened the car up a bit.
here is his when he got his new rims

I like those wheels, what are they? I haven't started researching wheels yet. I'd like some with a nice lip though. The car is pretty comfy for a dd. I think the seats are probably a mix between camaro and T/A if I had to compare. They sure aren't as comfortable as my t/a was (no lumbar) and I haven't quite dialed in my lovehandles into the positioning of the back.
