Mods that you've done in order to your car...


Recommended Posts

Hello all.. I was wondering what mods you've all performed on your cars... in order from first to last (or current). For instance just list them out

 

ex:

1. Seatbelt chime disable

2. Headlight clearing

2. DRL disable

3. Independent Fog light enable

 

and whatnot.. including if you've added any aftermarket navigation/ or performance mods.

 

So far I have none since I'm buying my car in a couple months but soon look forward to some of the current mods I've noticed around here and hopefully there are others that I just don't know about yet! http://i6.photobucket.com/albums/y222/c0bracommander/wiggle.gif

I'm a newbie, had my lgt going on 6 months

 

1) seat belt chime (used 30 click method, worked great, no wire cutting)

2) oe momo shift knob (great for daily driven m/t, and screws right on)

3) Cobb double adjustable sts (coming in today via UPS)

4) Cobb shifter bushings for sts (coming in today via UPS)

5) Cusco 21mm rear sway bar (coming in today via UPS)

6) AP lightweight crank pulley (coming in today via UPS)

 

That is it for now, but I got the mod bug as soon as i found this forum and buckled that seat belt in 30+ times. AP is next baby!

Well, off the top of my head and after refering to another thread, this is what I've done so far.

 

Window tint

Painted calipers

Debadged and rebadged with BOXER lettering

HIDs

Painted yellow caps under the hood

Bug guard

WRX pedals

Tail light tint

Turn signal tint

MOMO shift knob

Covercraft UVS100 Sunshade

L7 badge overlays

front strut tower bar

Australia LIBERTY badge

Astra Turbo badge (probably not permenant. Just curious)

Voltage meter in cubby

Boost gauge in cubby

2.5 STi badge (as of now unused)

tuned by STi badge (also not used yet)

More polishing and sealant than the law should allow.

 

Next up is the extra engine compartment covers. I'm exploring changing the subaru emblem on the back to a carbon fiber one too. Those are next on the list though. All my mods are just appearance mods. The car is plenty fast enough for me as it is. An AP would be nice though just so I could start getting back into the tuning aspect of car ownership.

Am I really supposed to remember?

 

Ok, I'll give it a go.

 

1) DRL Disable

2) Seatbelt chime disable

3) VDC (now Spec. B) head unit

4) OEM Subwoofer

5) MOMO Shift knob

6) OEM Security Upgrade (3-6 all done in one evening - all installed after I got the car, so I'll call them mods)

7) Blacked out headlights

8) AP

9) Partial Debadge (left "LEGACY" on)

10) Spec B steering wheel w/ radio controls

11) Cobb double adjustable short throw shifter

12) WRX Pedal set w/ matching dead pedal

 

I THINK that might be everything

 

Other things that I've been happy with/little tricks:

- Garage door opener velcro mounted inside map pocket out of site, but in perfect reach when pulling up to the house.

- Removed the silly warning sticker from the Cubby

- Usually keep the glovebox and trunk release locked so I can leave the windows open all the time in summer.

 

Need to clean the car out this weekend to get it ready for summer season! :D
