    So what do you need to make your car perfect...

    First we will start off with fix/upkeep stuff. Then we will do the stuff you "want".


    Fix/repair
    -Power steering pump is starting to whine again, woudl like to replace with the aftermarket low-flow pump
    -front door speaker blown, possible problems with mid speakers
    -ding on side, light scratches on passenger side nose
    -deep scratches on passenger door from roof shingle during hurricane
    -light scratches on hood from roof shingle in hurricane
    -deep scratch on spoiler from keying or lazy **** dragging a backpack on my car on campus
    -light scratches on rear bumper from getting nicked in a parking lot
    -touch up some bondo work I did from t-top conversion
    -small crack in windshield from rock coming off a truck and hitting windshield

    (all body work was quoted for $908, $308 of it for windshield which if I file a claim will be free)

    -need charcoal sunvisors
    -Could use new carpet, and seats to make it perfect pergect


    What I would want to make my car perfect...
    -all stuff above fixed
    -6-speed & LS1
    -full intake/exhaust(enough power for mid to high 12s)
    -full suspension(sways, springs, shocks lcas, fornt arms, panahard, torque arm, everything)
    -17x9.5 and 17X11 in the rear chrome zo6s
    -full charcoal interior and black leather

                Wow, where do I start?

                1. I would like to get my entire front fascia re-painted. It doesn't look that bad, but its not perfect. Then I will add a billet grille.

                2. Various scratches/swirls (which I will be polishing out very soon)

                3. Rims need to be re-finished in several places where the paint is wearing off. This will be a project very soon when I finish practicing my spray can skills with the Duplicolor.

                4. Ding on driver's side quarter panel

                5. Vent adjustment thingy broke

                6. Paint brake calipers navy blue

                I just recently bought new center caps (my red bow ties were fading) and chrome lug nut covers and this DEFINITELY contributed to my car's overall appearance. Amazing difference.

                Goodies that I want that are out of my cost range:

                FFF turbo kit
                Z06 rims
                Brand new paint job (complete with silver stripes)
                T-top conversion
                Leather seats (charcoal interior)
                Ground effects kit

                          New filler plate, a bumper that was color matched better, quiet exhaust (lol), new tires, new rims... i think thats it. oh as far as things i dont have- GFX, supercharger, or LS1 would make it perfect, but not necessarily needed.
