Mods for Christmass/need ideas
My wife is looking for Christmass ideas. She knows I don't want clothes or electronic gadgets since i have everything i want. The only thing remaining is mods/toys for the beast. i am trying to come up w/ ideas for under 1k. anybody have any suggestions?so far i have done the following:

B&B triflow exhaust
euro angel eyes and led rear lights
uuc shortshifter
new amps/speakers/subwoofer, etc
k40 radar/laser detector/ laser diffuser
valentine one
acs pedals
piaa superwhite foglights
painted calipars
H&R front sport springs
DINAN stage 1 software
K&N filters
euro fire exting.

don't want to ask her for big items, say brembo brakes or acs wheels, because i will probably buy myself and don't want my wife to know how much i spend!

i think that's all, but i may be missing something.

Steve,
I think Ill give her a call and let her in on the "secret upgrades" you want to do on the car. You know, the blue lights on the wiper fluid nozzles and the strobe lights in your headlights and tail lights ? Ill make sure she doesnt tell you about them so they are a complete surprise!
Ill also let your son know that you really want the "Who's your daddy?" windshield sticker and a membership to the civic cca.



Just kiddin' Im trying to figure some stuff out too. I have had great success in the Griot's garage catalogue! They have some awesome stuff in there. I basically told my wife and family to open to any page, close their eyes and point. The chances are that I will want it!

Hope you had a great Thanksgiving! Ive been in CT for the week so I still havent gotten my car back yet. I have seen a couple M5's here in Ct and NY and it is driving me nuts to get back behind the wheel! The Ford Ranger just isnt cuttin it.
Talk to you soon
