Just ordered...

Just ordered the slotted rotors and stoptech brakes from adams rotors . Also ordered h&r black 15mm spacers, some 6k hids , and some chrome lug nuts . I've always debates with my self which would look better since I have the black lug nuts on now . For those who care, this post will be edited with pictures when everything arrives .

Wow sounds like you have a lot of good mods planned. I definitely like the chrome lugs over any other color. Other color look like cheap rice. This is a nice car. Keep it classy. Mods are fun enjoy...

Well the lug nuts I have are satin black . The same color as my wheels. But I've been looking at pictures and I'm liking the contrast with the chrome lug nuts on black wheel .

Unless you may be planning for HFCs then a tune would be a good capper to those listed mods, if you get HFCs be sure to do the tune after that.

And Black lug nuts look

I thought you meant anodized blue, purple or red... lugs. What you describe sounds good.

I was talking to a friend about HFC and he said that his MPG went down 5MPG . I'm already getting average 15mpg and don't want that any lower . Any input on this?

It sounds like your friend got a case of lead foot after he had his HFC's installed. If you drive like your being chased so you can hear those new cats then of course you are going to lose MPG's. if you drive like you do before the cats the difference is really unnoticable.

Let me know what you think of those rotors when you get them. I was thinking about orderer their "Track" rotors. I already have the new pads and SS brakelines in the garage. I just can decide on the new rotors yes. I also want to wait till the weather turns before tackling the install so my wife doesnt complain that I take up the whole garage again for a few days
