Thanks Lawman.... I haven't done anything to the springs, it came like this from the factory.
I think in 2002 there were like 500-700 NHRA TA's made, not too sure though.

I thought about the Ram Air hood when i first got the car, but then i did some further investigation into the NHRA SE, and it was a package only offered on bas TA's and Formulas.. No Ram Airs. So now, i am thinking about the Mecham hood..
As for the side vents, i had a local racing shop spray them with some paint for me and then clear coat... I had one vent start flaking a few weeks ago, so i went to the Local Wal mart, and bought some Metallic silver spray paint, and touched it up... perfect match! If you do this though make sure they are clean before you spray them.
