    If my girlfriend was going to Germany for awhile I'd be seeing if she would be willing to get some of the euro parts and send them home to me!

      yeah, I always wondered if you went to Europe and then tried to bring a 121 headlight set, grill, clear corners, and a tail light set back in a suit case, if they would stop you or not? you could be creative with an excuse... :twisted:

        Being able to switch the back of seats would be nifty, I'm also curious.. what is a EGT? :roll: I also plan to get some different headlights from the junkyard, how hard are they to replace? Thte previous owner got holes in them and now theres this orange sludge in the bottom of the lights... Thanks for the ideas so far, keep em rolling. Also which of the ideas I suggested would be easy to do?

                Is a lot of work requires to install a k&n air filter?

                everything under the hood is stock, as far as I know.

                  I think you can get the adapter you need for the heater box from autozone or advance auto... or you could check out Mattswab's car domain page on his bp non turbo, he made his own... but it is sold at most part stores... should be an easy swap... its gonna be the first one I am doing... I think it involves removing the stock air box... and you can get some cheap chrome piping for it at the same auto parts stores... it is also a nice looking upgrade if it is done right... and you won't have to buy another filter again, just clean it...

                    Sounds like a good plan, how does it effect the performance of the car?

                      it adds a few horses... increases air flow to the intake...

                        I like the seat backs . I think I'll look in to that. cause I've got nice seat covers but they fit a little loose.

                          Yes the seats are one of my top priorities, after I get a new/used muffler! In your guys' opinion what should I get a new muffler or a used one from junkyard? Beacuse at the place I go to for parts its 85$ CAD for a new festy muffler

                            I personally wouldn't buy a junk yard muffler unless It was either stainless (like I would be lucky enough to find one of those...) or it looked like it was put on, and then junked... buy the new one... its a lot less hastle...
