Now, WWP, that thing is beautiful. It's basically a white, blank canvas. Any appearance mod you do to it will look good.... well, with the exception of VTEC and NOS stickers.

I'd do bronze TE-37's, that's going to run a good two and a half grand, nearly three and a half with tires. Full authentic kit all around would cost another pretty penny, I'd say six grand in appearance mods.

Have you seen my mod list for the 8?

This is what I want... in this order.

Of course, a white 8.

Gold Volks SF-Challenges (I can get tires for pretty cheap)
TEIN Flex
TEIN EDFC
Turbo XS Exhaust or Exotic Speeds dual canister exhaust
CF Hood
CF Trunk
CF Vinyl Roof
Progress Sways
AEM/MS Intake
BHR Coils
Cobb AP
Corksport DD Kit
DD Dash
TC Sportline Underbody Brace
MS Strut Bar

That's pretty much it.
Of course, I want little things here and there like a radiator cap, oil cap, etc.

Oh, and I forgot gauges. I'll probably do the same setup I had before again as in Lotek pod with some nice AutoMeter gauges... I would love the DEFI but the 2'' ones are discontinued now.

This was my setup before I got the AutoMeter gauges. I had cheap iequus gauges shown in the picutre. It's this right here, AutoToyz/Autobacs sells them for only forty bucks.

Well, the gauges I got came in a bundle of three. It came with Oil Pressure, Oil Temperature, and Voltage.

The Water Temperature requires a separate adapter that requires cutting of the water hose.

Yeah, the BF DEFI gauges only comes in 2 5/8 inches now, they don't make 2'' gauges anymore and the Lotek pod only takes 2''.
