After Tinting Whats Next

after i get my windows tinted what do you guys think i should do with the car.... appearance or engine mods? any thoughts or suggestions would be helpful.

i loved my exhaust when i did it, by far my fav mod to my car. cool thing about exhaust it that its looks and performance. than the stock alero is a 4x4 way to high, slam that bitch down.

supercharger.

...or bagz.

i was really thinking about getting it lowered but how much would it cost to get that done?

Depends what you want. For springs, if you do it yourself, you can get 'em for around $200.00. If you can't do it yourself, figure another $100.00 or so for installation.

well whats it take to install them im sure me and a friend could figure it out or i could find someone whose installed them but i dont want to do something that i could mess up. will i notice any performance increase or anything else

plus new struts if you have a lot of miles on your car, which is what, another $200?

i havent hit 10,000 miles yet i will in about 5 or 6 days prolly

For installation, either pick up a haynes manual or check out the how-to on this site. Then decide if you can handle it yourself.

Depending on what you get, you can see a fairly big performance increase, handling-wise. I recommend Eibachs for performance, but the lower it the least, so it depends what you want.

You don't need new struts.

i dont understand exactly what your saying in the quotes.

Sorry, I meant to say "THEY lower it the least." As in, other springs will get you lower, but Eibachs perform the best.

k i just wanted it lowered maybe a half inch or so right in there where can i look up some of those springs at and also what type of place should i take it to have them installed cuz i dont think i will feel comfortable putting them on. knowing me ill be half way out my driveway and my tire will be still up in front.

you are going to get more than a half inch drop out of any lowering spring. i ordered mine from pfyc.com. there is a link on the aleromod homepage. pretty much any shop will put them on for you, just be sure to get quotes from a several places and obviously take the best deal. i did mine myself but i got 2 quotes, one place said $240 and the other $150.
