yeah, i'm definately modding her. I never had the money to mod my first one...kinda glad now that she's gone. I'm going to start off with:
Kenny Brown SFC's
!CAGS
Hooker LT's, Y, Corsa (most likely) catback
Short Shifter
Chrome ZR1's, 17x9.5 front, 17x11 back

The only part of this I don't plan to do myself is the SFC's. I can't weld, and trust me, no one wants me to try!
