I would just paint the outer rim blue and then the center a really gloss black.

i live in montana i already break my body kit about every day
every parking lot you pull into is not made for lower cars they expect everyone to have huge 6 inched lifted trucks and stuff.. so i scrape my body kit on about everything..

and all the "good" coilover spring you guys talk about are exspensive if i do remember correctly..

but my next mods are
the atx tb as soon as it gets here
then the udp
and if i can ever remember im gonna get the snorkel off of the 3.0 caravan and move my battery to the trunk since im not using my power wire for my system any more

and my brother keeps telling me to lower my car and now that ive heard it from someone else i just might do that but i dont see 1-2 inches as being that much

Try and find some Mopar High rates. They drop it just a little bit, but I like the stance.

yeah the high rates give the car a low and wide stance....but not low enough to cause alot of problems

Thats exactly what I had on my Neon (whenI had it[X(]). I had the Mopar High rates w/ KYB GR2 struts and it was perfect. It made the car look real aggresive. And I loved the handling.

i agree with boxer...i live in a rural area andi scraped my stratsbody kit evey day why in the hell lower it more...hey boxerdo what mygf did get a air suspension. i don't see it being a problem on my neon for awhile so i could get mopar high rates or some other lowering spring but when i do the body kit it would **** me off to scrape more then i have too.

my friend with the civic, says the only true CAI is the intercooler is this true?? but i didnt want to argue cuz i respect him and dont want him to feel stupid cuz hes the one that even got me into vehicle tuning.. ( iwas about to start tuning my 2.2 ford tempo... 0-60 22secs ) hahaha.. but then i got my neon and ive been trying to tune it since then... but he has gotten me into tuning car since the beginning but i never thought i would get into it intell i saw my neon at a gas station for sale.. and i fell in love with it.. and new it was gonna be a project and thats what i wanted, i wanted something worthy of spending time working on



does the msd ignition system better for our vehicles.. anyone have one.. cuz he says that he installed it on a friends vehicle and the guy said that was the best mod yet and he had headers, exhaust and everything and said that msd ignition system was the best performance part yet... anyone know??

was it packaged in with engine or just an option on neons?
It was more of the style of car. Sports, Expresso's, R/T's came with'em.

But going by mulletman11's rationalization, why didn't the ACR (which was built/designed for SCCA racing) come with a spoiler ?
its not a rationalization. all i said was they aid in handling of your car, especially at high speeds.
last time i checked, i didnt output the neon for production, so how do i know why they did/didnt come with wings.
i was goign ver that, yes they actually do something.
