Default New guy looking for ideas

Hey everyone, I'm new to the forum. I have recently bought a dark gray 04 STX and am currently looking for ideas for it. My current mods only include a sound system, aluminum dash kit, tinted windows, satelite radio, clear corners, and a clear third brake light. I'm looking for suggestions on how to make my car stand out (more show than go). Also, if anyone can post pics of their cars w/o a body kit, that would be much appreciated.

Lambo doors are a little out of my price range, I was thinking maybe suicide doors in the back

for sure, you can pick up a lambo door kit for several hundred to 1500. same price as some nice rims. im with lowering it and adding rims though. cf would look good with dk grey. just stay away from much chrome

18" rims??? What is the largest size tire and wheel combo that will fit on a Neon without having to space it out to keep it from rubbing the wheel well? Would I need to lower it any with bigger wheels and tires? Anyone make a "progrssive" spring kit?

I started out with what was necessary. After I got the car, I had the windows tinted to the maximum allowed by Missouri state law.

The next two items I am looking to change are the air intake and the exhaust.

Then, I will probably look into some kind of body mods along with bigger wheels and tires.

The only thing left would be the Hahn Racecraft turbo kit. And if it broke after turboing, I'd have to replace the ATX with the high performance kit Modern Performance has.
