Default Future Mods

I was sitting here thinking about what i wanted to do to this car because im going to have this thing for a while. Here are my mods:

Lambo Doors
18-20 black/chrome full faced rims
Tinted Windows
TV Monitors in the visors, headrests, dash, in the center where the main light is in the car.
Custom paint job like in the picture minus the gay looking rims
Spoiler Painted black
A functioning hood like the Charger SRT8
2 Black rally stripes down the middle of the car
HID lights

If u guys have any other suggestions on what i should do to my car let me know. Im open to any suggestions.

First I would go for power rather than appearance mods IMO. But in my case I am doing little by little with both, but I am not doing too much as far as appearance goes...BTW I just bought the ported intake manifold and I cannot wait until it comes in!!!

i was thinking performance first but looking at that custom paint job sort of got the best of me. i want to get a turbo charger but its 5 g's and i dont have that right now. headers would be nice along with a Tuner but the tuners cost a grip

these cars would look really aggressive if they had hood scoops or functional hoods

Yeah, but as you know, looks aren't everything. If it looks mean, I would want to be able to "back it up".

If you decide to get lambo doors DO NOT go cheap on them. A friend of mine bought lambo's cheap and they ended up ruining his fenders. He bought them off ebay and spent like 400 on them lol.

i dont really consider that car to be much of a lambo anyway.
i dont like lambo doors to begin with but i think its kinda gay on a 4 door car. maybe if all 4 doors were lambo.

If you cant afford the lambo, you dont deserve the doors.

Never liked lambo doors on other cars, just not my thing. Or the whole tv idea, but hey thats me. Whatever make you happy man. I'm more of a performance person over apperance although i try to balance them out.
