I assume he is talking about eyelids for the headlights, a trim piece that goes at the top. I personally would never add this, the stock headlights are awesome as is. Plus, you would be covering up the light strip at the top, which looks pretty cool when the lights are on.

Oh, and as far as my plans,
Exterior:
- 360 Forged 19" wheels
- Formula One Pinnacle tint 15% (install next week)
- Carbon Fiber bits when available
- Coilovers
- Black badges, possibly black out chrome trim around windows
Interior
- V1 Hardwire
- Possibly CF trim, very interested in custom CF seat backs
Performance
- Software, VRP 530, VRP Airbox, Headers...whatever I can to get close to 600hp
- VRP Supercharger if I'm feeling insane and the above mods don't satisfy or get me close to 600hp
My goal is to trap in the low to mid 120s.

Absolutely nothing except for the air filters I bought from VRP... I've been through the fixing up stage of cars and I'm going to enjoy a car that looks like and is fast and not spend unnecessary $$$.

I have been wanting to mod my personal car(s) for ages, but couldnt. Last car was a MazdaSpeed6 and all I could do to it was intake and upping the boost. Mid way after starting I decided it would be better for me just to save up and buy something really good instead.....ahem and mod it ahem.

Yeah, not going to happen. You would have to brake at least pass 127mph trapping the quater mile to at least push into the 10s. Thats 17mph over the stock trap speed, just too much out of an NA. Perhaps with nitrous.
#18
You guys are most likely right. It will need around 530 or so rwhp. ( about 600 in the motor ) If we could make that happened then it can be done. Just have to wait and see what the tuners can do.
#19
hm, I dont know. Perhaps. Now that I think of it, if you add some Drag Radials or fatter tires with the 530hp you might be able to do it. Granted, everything has to be perfect...good temp, altitute, etc. Good luck!
