My New Alero
This is my new baby. I bought it from a used car lot, I knew the guy so I got a deal. Some old lady owned it before me, garage kept, less than 75,000 miles. Only a few chips on the front end. everything is stock perfect. I can't wait to start throwing money at it - when I get some.

I voted for intake, but first thing you do always is change all fluids and filters. And go on from there.

Clear Corners
Thanks guys, I'll look into the clear corners. I like that look, and the bonus is -- no cost!

I would suggest making the whole system breath better by doing the intake and the exhaust at the same time. its not that you have to, but performance increases like crazy and u are bound to be happy.

Do your mods in the order you want and can afford. Have fun and WELCOME!!!!
A good set of polished or chrome wheels would look great on that car for starters IMO.

welcome aboard! I have the same color green as you, the first thing I did was clear my headlights then get 15% Tint all around.
You'll love how much better it looks with the tint.
Dark rims will look good too
