Default Top 3 Appearance mods?
What would you consider the 3 top appearance mods on your (specific to you) LSX vehicle?

Since I got a Z28, I'd have to go with Hood, Spoiler and Wheels, swapping those out makes the biggest difference to me. To be more detailed, Sunoco (or SS) hood, SS spoiler and ZO6's!

1) Keep it clean. This goes a long way.
2) Wheels
3) Stance

Just keep it clean no matter what mods you have if any. That goes a long way.

Pretty much those 3 mods in that order would be the top 3 that I've done to my car. Berger panel with chrome fill-ins take a close 4th behind the rims though. Still need to get the stance right since I'm riding stock 4x4 style.

ws6 - 1.wheels 2.ceta mod 3.tips or red calipers
t/a - 1.ws6hood 2.wheels 3.ceta mod
ss - 1.wheels 2.stance 3.manta stripe
z/28 - 1.wheels 2.stance 3.spoiler

pretty much the stance and wheels are the best appearance mods, tint can also really set off all of your other appearance mods.
