The "Your Planned Mods" Thread
I don't recall really seeing this anywhere, but I could be wrong. Lock as necessary.
But I'm curious what people want to do with their tCs... and let's try to keep it feasible and stick with things there's a good chance you'll do - not what you "wish" you could do. I have a few plans listed in my sig, but here's what I'm thinking so far:

Not really a mod, per se, but I plan to wire the iPod so that it can sit in the upper armrest section, not the lower one. To me leaving it in the lower section is a complete waste of space. I'll have to see if/how this is possible when I get my tC.
hopefully, next summer i can get 18x8.5 Gold Axis Hiros and after that the Kaminari body kit. And im still waiting for my friend to mail me the Injen CAI i cant wait for that. and way down the line cuz im poor lol turbo... but that wont be for a looooong time.
hmm well im kind of broke right now..gotta wait for my paycheck =P but anyways here are some mods ill prbably do from now to next year
TWM short shifter
Luminics..i hate stock lights..and probably not enough money for HIDs anyways
Tein springs stech..dunno
gotta have some bass in my tC too
CAI is a must for me..injen or K/N
and definitely a tint..i dont really know whats legal or what but ill find out
and finally far far into the future when i have enough money..probably some nice rims

Since mine's three days old and bone stock (in order of purchase):
1. TRD exhaust
2. TRD lowering springs
3. TRD shocks
4. (Warranty dependent) K&N or similar CAI
5. OEM ground effects
6. (Perhaps) lip spoiler or pedestal spoiler
How quickly these things get installed depends heavily on my budget (obviously). After these 6 which I am fairly certain about, I'd consider the TRD supercharger (if it ever comes to be).
And if I had money off the wazoo and didn't car about my warranty I'd get a wide body kit and turbo, etc. etc.
