Window Valet. Lloyds Mats. Both are good choices.

Put on the bling-bling, zink coated, drilled and slotted rotors and get the calipers powder coated. It'll give your car a great look.

Hi sceia-

Two things that I bought for my wifes coupe that I really like -

The MidAmerica checkerboard console pad - very well made and it is COMFY - never thought I would like it becuse it was comfortable -

about $130

And WebElectric sqeuential taillight harnesses - a subtle yet very cool mod.

Around $100

How about the service manual set - I bought mine from Ken Fichtner

around $100


best regards -

How about an NCM Membership for you? You get a cool lapel pin, a nice suitable for framing certificate, a 10% discount at the NCM Store, and a good feeling that you're supporting a great organization.

Happy Birthday!

If you can't decide, pick something that you might like to have and hold off on purchasing it until you are sure.Don't make a hasty decision based on a date. Alot of hasty purchases wind up on Ebay or at swap meets and usually at a loss.
By the way my birthday is Fri. and I am having my vette detailed as a present.Have a Happy Birthday.
There were alot of great ideas out there guys!
