Default What other mods should I do......?

Having Bilstein Shocks and Hotchkis bars installed this weekend. While the wheels are off and car up in the air, are there any other mods or bolt ons that I should do? The brakes and tires are new so that is not an option. Underhood mods will be considered as well. See sig for existing mods.

Its not performance orientated, but you can paint your calipers.

I don't think I will have enough time to paint them. I would rather buy the already red ones, but for $299 and up, yikes!

I think that you have most of the bolt-ons already.
