Default My Magnum 1 month later. What do you think?

Hey all. I've had my Magnum for a month now. It has been dropped 2 inches with Mopar Springs, side mouldings and badges removed, Aeroturbine Exhaust and 20 inch wheels. Future mods, intake (once the great intake faceoff is completed) headers and maybe just maybe a Supercharger.

Just some different angles.

Your car looks sweeeeeeeet! I love the wheels and the drop really completes the package. I have a black SXT that I'm wrapping up on. One thing I can tell you is get rid of the side molding, along with the badges. I have to say that this is one of the best mods I've done so far to my Mag, along with the wheels and the Eibach Pro drop.

Thanks Magman. I'm going to keep the side molding. The people in Yuba City don't have much respect for others cars and they LOVE to park next to me when I park in a remote part of a lot. I'm probably going to have the chrome painted to match the body.

If you keep the side molding, you may want to switch it out for the SE/SXT molding. Its solid black without the chrome. I got rid of the molding because it was beginning to trap an ungodly amount of dirt underneath. I have the appearance package on my SXT so it also had the chrome strip in the molding which was beginning to look very rough. I agree with the original placement, I hate people that have no respect for others property. I make it a habit to park well out in parking lots.

Your car looks really good. It would look even better with an after market hood.

Magman I didn't notice that the SXT had body color molding. I will go out tomorrow and buy some. Thanks.

stboden I want an aftermarket hood. Problem is there are only 2 on the market, RK hood and Shaker. I don't really care for the RK hood and according to a post on another forum the Shaker is a pain in the **** to install.

midnightblueneon thanks!

Beautiful ride. Nice and clean. Not sure I would get rid of the chrome side molding, but that's me...you obviously have a good eye! Keep it up and maybe you'll be competing with Grinner

Fantastic ride!! Yiou mentioned Mopar springs. They come out with a set finally or for a different model?
IMO you have done a great job! Also wondering about the rim? I haev seen the ECLIPSE SEMA Magnum in person,
and I think that the shaker part of the hood is too big. It dominates the whole front end. But it's my opinion and we all know what they are like hgahahaha
