Mods are coming along...SLOWLY

Well, I've got my PIAA lights installed (headlights, which I LOVE), Got my foglights put in on Thursday but the mechanic screwed up the installation. Somehow, he's got them hooked into the daytime running lights. So when I turn on the car and the daytimes come on, so does the foglight (dimer too). This has caused one of them to blow or a fuse or relay to go...not sure, hence only 1 foglight. I'll get that worked out (I hope, next week). They are nice fog lamps though....they are Xenon crystal bulbs. I'd say just as bright as my PIAA's with a bluish tint to them. Since I can't get any better or aftermarket headlight assemblies, I'm thinking I'll just buy new factory ones from General motors. Does anyone know if you can buff pits and abrashions out of extisting ones? I want SMOOTH, NEW PLASTIC That is last on my list though since they are over $200/each here in Canada and a non essential right now. Next I'm getting the windows tinted. Any recommendations on percentages for windows? I got a great stereo 2 weeks ago. It's a JVC with animations and it's very bright and cool lookin at night. Paint job is to be done in the early summer. I'm thinking I'll stick with black but maybe metallic would be nicer. In about 1 month I'm going to buy the rotors, drums, shocks/struts and have them installed. Then it'll be the muffler system and maybe a new metal grill.

I can polish plastic head lamps!! pitted or gauged

For tinted windows, I would either go for 35% or 20% On my 02 Gt I have 35%. But that does lighten up with time (mine did). If you live in a really sunny warm area they will lighten up faster, Also check local laws restrictions if any. For instance here in New Jersey i can have the back 3 windows tinted but not the front windows ( even though mine are i just won't be able to pass inspection)

I was using 2 1/2 percent , but i put it in when i was drunk so it looked crappy lol

yea you can buff your lights to make them look new. what kind of exhaust you going to get? what about the brakes and all that, brembo has some nice ones that are stock replacements.

brembos are nice espeacially with a balance controller.
