But some people dont have a clue what to get or start with ???

? Lets all help them out by creating a personal 10 MUST-HAVE MOD LIST

This would certainly help me out plus who knows how many are asking the same question :B:
 
10 Amber DRLs
9 Mag Lite Mod
8 Billet Grille
7 PIAA Super Whites or Silver Stars
6 50 Watt Fogs
5 FIPK Gen 2 (UPD, Volant, K&N)
4 New Gauge Cluster

Start off slow then work your way in to bigger things. Being that this is your first post, let me be the first to say welcome and here is the gift that you should keep in a safe place. This is the Link to Advice.

You will want to keep this in your favorites for future reference. It's pretty much everything you want or need to be done. Consider this your Christmas present. :B:
