ALL my upcoming MODS am I missing something?

02GT89 · February 19th, 2010, 02:15 AM

Ok as most of you know by now I am turning the car into a full out saleen clone and adding some performance to it .. any how here is what I have ordered and is already here... I got a spare 600$ left to throw away until I sell another car any suggestions or comments on what I have and need??

1. Full Saleen Body kit from Stage3.com Kit includes.. Front, sides , rear - With saleen engraved on bumper , and the s281 Spoiler $1,500

2. All proper saleen badging for sides and rear - $112

3. Saleen 5 piece decals Incude Side faders, Side letter for both sides, and the Windshield Decal - $100

4. 3.73 Gears - A birthday Present but about $220

5. CAI - A birthday Present but getting it for $60 its the shorty Ram Air.

6.Triple Plated Chrome for the wheels for $60 They are the full fit on wheel skins to Look just like real chromies THEY ARE JUST FOR INTERMEDIATE show use until I save 900- 1000 Dollars for 18x9 and 18x10 Saleen Wheels and able to put some rubber on them

all in all I got about $1,780.00 Into my little spending spree I got a spare 600$ to play with if I want still deciding on really spending it instead of saving for the wheels or getting a cam... Any suggestions, comments, compliments what ever you feel like inputing is helpful and as Long as I don't rape the repping system again Every answer gets repped for comedy, Help, Tips, ect.! Thanks in advance!

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 · February 19th, 2010, 02:24 AM

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 · February 19th, 2010, 03:04 AM

+1 on the side scoops.

00mustang00 · February 19th, 2010, 08:44 AM

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.

Pittbull · February 19th, 2010, 09:16 AM

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

dcook_14 · February 19th, 2010, 09:45 AM

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

Pittbull · February 19th, 2010, 10:38 AM

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

sharkbait · February 19th, 2010, 10:49 AM

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 · February 19th, 2010, 10:51 AM

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

Pittbull · February 19th, 2010, 10:57 AM

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 · February 19th, 2010, 12:45 PM

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 · February 19th, 2010, 01:05 PM

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 · February 19th, 2010, 01:08 PM

Aren't you selling your car?

Edit: directed towards shark.

sharkbait · February 19th, 2010, 01:12 PM

Yes sir.

LGHTNG02GT · February 19th, 2010, 05:07 PM

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
