    mod how?

    i love when people say "where do i start with modding?". it makes no sense.

    what do you want to get out of your car...? do you want to blow the doors off corvettes? do you want to break out of the 15s? what do you want?

    sounds like you're more interested in looks than performance. The visual/body modifications section would probably be a good place to start, but very few people on any of the GP boards do body kits, FAR to ricey.

    X2 on the ricey body kit. If you can throw money at it get the entire SD appearance package from PFYC.com and have it painted. Get your car lowered and put some rims on it...tint the windows and paint the brake calipers...if it is a GT then maybe a few bolt ons, intake, downpipe...maybe a 180* T-stat, some new plugs and wires to help out and a tuned PCM...

    i just checked out that site for the first time... i guess it would be cool for visual modifications if your into all that jazz but if your lookin for performance.. there are too many specialty sites for 3800 cars to even think about going there

    I know that.

    Body kits...and maybe a catback and overpriced CAI.

    The site should be changed to Andy's Overpriced Rice Store.
