Default New job, new mod list

Well, here it is, at 37 I was offered a buy out 6 months pay, 3 months personal leave...

Not to say I did not see it coming a mile a way. All ready have a new job lined up...20% pay raise and 100% incentive raise

So the new mod list is as follows:
18% tint all around
Black Wig
LT headers (still taking suggestions)
VE boot, C6 ****, E brake, center console
Sport Brakes...

...any additions welcome

Peace
Willfulone

Instead of a black wig, I would look into hair replacement!

Can't you just feel the love here?

Glad you landed on your feet so quickly. Almost any mod list will always be improved upon by the wisdom of the Forum! So how about a VE upgrade on the seats; interior accents; etc.?

Why stop at 18% tint. Just go for the 5% it will look much better .

Finish up your VE interior with some nice seats, new wheels, and if you are into performance, a Magnuson with new hood.

If you don't want to do the S/C, a new Motor City Mold hood would look great.
