congrats, you are in similar situation i was couple weeks ago, basically got convinced on this car by reading this board, and the first money i put into it was also tinting (though car color is black), and i just ordered 17s yesterday, after that, all money is being saved for a turbo, not sure which one yet, but ill wait till i get 4gs saved and then decide. anyway, have fun, i just got past the break in, and have gone buck wild a couple times, and it is definitely pretty fun.

kory

welcome. :)

price sounds good to me. i paid 15.9 with basically no options 1 year ago.

i think you should save for suspension mods instead of a turbo kit. a turbo will destroy your engine warrenty if anything goes wrong.

i suggest getting some 17's with sticky rubber, jic coilovers, and a 21mm rear sway bar.

and remember the intake:p

yes especially since "nice mom" can turn into "devil mom" once she thinks your warranty may be kaput...but WELCOME!!!

any mods replacing factory parts w/ aftermarket will kill warranty-regardless of the benefits.

now, wear and tear(brakes,filters,plugs,battery) are OK

BUT, rims and tires, plus a new system wont void it-but dont touch the engine or drivetrain or susp or pipes if u want to keep your warranty!

remember thier copy of the warranty has allot finer print then yours!
