Default what mod should I make

o.k I want ever 1nce opinion on this...
1. Lambo doors $3,100
2. Air Ride = suspension drop what ever you want to call it, $35 to $3,900
3. 20 x 7.50 inch wheels and System custom made for XB $3,100 or so

based on info from Motor city in Melrose Park ( if you know a place that is cheaper let me know)

i wrote B-4 to ask if any one knew a place to get my lambo doors put in, I now have a little extra cash so I want to put it into the xb but when I went yesturday I came across this 3 things that I wanted to do to the xb so I want every onece opinion on this is you want i want to make all but don't have the money for everythig
so I am weeling to spend about $3,000 that I got from my tax return so any info it will be really appreciated thanks

lambo door? i dont think so! they wont last on your car cause the door is heavy!

i think the suspension would be tight!
yeah.... thats what i would go for!

I'd go with the wheels and system because everyone will see the wheels all the time which is what you buy them for and you'll get to enjoy the system all the time.

Have you thought about a supercharger or turbo? Those will fit in your budget too.

I would go w/ the suspension. That way you can figure out different wheels later that will fit w/ the ride and the drop that you drive w/.

I see a tC around town with the Lambo door kit on it. I don't know which kit it is or who installed it, but the doors have paint chips all around the edges. I think they are hitting the quarter panel when they are closing sometimes.
I know they look cool, but to me, they are a big waste of money.
Go for the suspension, stereo and performance mods.

you should try contacting Mike at Sound Performance in Bloomingdale. He had 20s and a drop on his former HotLava.

like i said!! no doors!!
it looks great but you wont use it! trust me it opens enough to get it and out with out lifting the door!

suspension is always a nice look.....but inside the sound is what matters...

so really just skip the doors!!!
