| hmm, new front caliper lol (i drove it to my mechanic to have it checked out and my friend was like, "man this thing has the best deceleration in the world". Then we pulled in to the shop and my mechanic had a disgusted look on his face and told me about my seized front caliper). Then as I was starting to restore the body work, I purchased my Voxx 220 rims and Nankang ultrasport II tires. Then a mis matched stereo.
but technically, my first investment was a front caliper and oil change. _________________  | |

| when the car on which i learned driving was sold i shifted to the corolla i had it in pretty bad shape the hvac didnt work.....every thing was super glued........seat belt light didnt work.....there was play in steering and key light didnt work....so bought steering assembly.....power steering motor and steering box and new rods...........new steering......some buttons...new hvac box and panel......new fan speed switch.....bumper lights...new shields..
in my opinion first bring your car to a standard where there is driving pleasure in it......because i have made my cars every function working and its engine is sound and suspension is also 70 percent.....so when ever i start my car i feel happy to own it........and driving it brings a smile to my face.........after doing that i though about adding some stuff and making it look better........ _________________  | |

Dam bro seems like yours needed a make over! u must be really proud though! all i did was fix a seat belt in the back and change the busted steering wheel and a detail clean and i felt like rick ross in a benz hahaha | |

| First thing I invested in for my car was probably cleaning products. When I got my car it was sooo dirty. Spent about 3 days cleaning the inside, scrubbing the engine and washing/clay-baring the outside.
Then it was all stereo for me for a little while. _________________  Facebook | |

| Get the ones I have!  I just love how simple they are. Not too much, and not too old-school.  As for the head lights, I like the ones on the right better. Not really a big fan of LED strips on headlights. Makes the car look like its wearing eye-liner, in my opinion. _________________  flickr CarDomain facebook | |
