hmm...a saleen blower ?

that may be a little pricey right now tho, huh?
if not how about some lowering springs for it?
or, the white face gauges with the SALEEN logo on it?

EDIT: did your body kit come with the side scoops too? cuz they are different and hella cool. i got them on my car

[02GT89]

haha i would probably go KB over saleen sc just because its almost 1 grand cheaper lol thats almost 3 cars sold to be able to have the play money for it

true that. i hear not so good things about the Saleen kit tho. i guess they base it off an eaton M90 which is supposed to be a kinda crappy blower to start with. you cant beat a KB with a bat that has nails driven thru it

[ShapeShifter]

+1 on the side scoops.

you could always skip the saleen body kit parts and get a used supercharger. people on here are finding kits for like 17-1800. I do love the saleen look though dont get me wrong. i'm just a person who prefers the go to match the show.

That 600 u got left over is going to go into getting the body kit painted and installed prob ha

[dcook_14]

You need side scoops, hood and C-Pillars for the outside. Not sure about the inside, seats and gauges at least.

[Pittbull]

+1 on The side scoops. They do look pretty sweet

[sharkbait]

Lowering springs would look isane

Get a nitrous kit. There about 500 and your car will have some power to match the sick looks!

I think it'll cost way more than that to have the kit painted and installed, especially if the OP does it right and buys the side scoops and hood. I'd say it'll be upwards of $1500 to get it fitted an painted. If you think about it you're replacing like 40% of the whole car if the OP goes through with a FULL Saleen makeover

[sharkbait]

1500?! yea right more like 2500. It was going to cost me 700 to have my hood painted and blended

[Pittbull]

Holy shit that's alot. Didn't kno it was that much but now that I think about it I'd say you're right. That's alot of shit to do

[RyanGT]

Yeah i got screwed by a shot and costed me like 650 for getting my hood painted... and they have to redo it!

I get the hookup from my brother in law so I don't really know what stuff costs most people, 1500 was a ballpark but holy $h!t 2500 is expensive to get all that stuff done! It makes buying a carbon fiber hood all that more appealing to me since I won't have to pay anything to have painted

[sharkbait]

Yea its expensive stuff. 02's is a show car though so id expect he already knows about the price of painting stuff. Unless his parts come pre painted.

Iv givin up on body mods and hoods and stuff. Id rather go fast

[RyanGT]

Aren't you selling your car?

Edit: directed towards shark.

[sharkbait]

Yes sir.

[LGHTNG02GT]

holy fugg paint shops are a rip. my car used to be black but me and a buddy of mine that works in a collision shop did the bumpers, body work, sealed, primered, painted, and cleared my car for just over $500
