Ok SL fam, I need some help. I just got $175 for my birthday with more to come soon. I need to do some serious mods before nopi-- What should I do first?

Here's what I have so far on my ride

Hotchkiss tower brace
AEM oil cap
OBX shift ****
OBX pedals
18" ICW rims
15% tint except fronts which are 30% (damn law!)
Cargo cover, cargo net, cargo mat, and floor mats (cargo mat aint here yet, backordered... Joe!!!)

What I want:
Anzo projector headlamps
Anzo LED taillamps
a 1.5" drop... either on Jlines or Tiens
CF spoiler
CAI
Some type of nice sounding exaust
amp and sub woofer...
Randode interior cold cathode lights

So what should I get first? Im trying to do NOPI this year too so I just want to be clean and tyte like the rest of y'all!

 

I would say with what you want done I would lower then get something else with any left over!!

The lower the better

 

Hmmmm, You already have done a lot.
I would say save the money to pay for gas.

 

I say drop the box....thats been one of my favorite mods I did so far.

 

That's true... gas is rising. but I just traded out of a 1988 BMW 528 for the xB. I went from 17 mpg to 30... Im cool with that!

And I see the general consensus is for me to drop the box. I can get some gold Lines for about $110 from a friend. I think it would drop it around 2" all around... I just need to find a shop in Atlanta to put 'em on for cheap!

 

I dropped mine on S-techs. Seriously, this car has one of the easiest suspensions I've ever dealt with. If you use the tutorial found in FAQ's, you can have it done in 2 hours max. Thats if you have any degree of mechanical aptitude. But seriously, don't pay someone to do it.

 

Drop it like it's hot.

 

Drop it

 

Drop. Or save another few hundred and get coilovers.

 

It all depends on what you are doing with your car. If it's a daily driver, don't bother with coilovers. It's really not worth the cash, especially if you do without other small mods to afford the coilovers. Personally, I say to go with plenty of cheaper mods.

For instance,

For the average price of coilovers (say $800 for cheaper ones) you could get:

Low springs, CAI, exhaust, spoiler, interior lighting, and plenty more. I vote to get several cheaper mods rather than one good expensive one.

 

Im really feelin what Max is sayin right now. It is a daily driver. granted, I only drive an average of 10 mile round trip during the week, but I balance that off by taking longer trips sometimes. (Im going home for labor day... St Louis from Atlanta is like 550 miles.) I called my homie with the Gold Line Springs. Im gettin them for $110. So what's next fam?
