    Suggested upgrade path for 2000C230K

    I wanna know what would YOU choose as an upgrade path, in which order would you change things in your car.

    I think I'd personally go like this:

    paint moldings, doorhandles and front grill
    lightly tinted windows - glass-coating (maybe like the last tint of MBenzNL)
    head unit + midranges + tweeters
    springs + shocks + sway bars
    wheels + camber kit
    body kit + exhaust
    subwoofer + amp
    bling bling mirors
    chip + air intake
    big brakes upgrade
    7in dash screen + dvd / gps navigation
    pulley kit

    other little things: white guages, brighter headlight bulbs, dimming rear view miror, maybe flat hood badge, metal pedals

    Exterior
    Interior
    Powertrain
    finally ICE
    with a pinch of bling bling

    EDIT oops.. left out the suspension braking... etc. They goes along with exterior usually... as the drop and rims come into the picture.

    Heheheh virtual project car!!!!

    Here is the order I would go:

    Suspension

    Pulley upgrade

    Wheel/Tyres

    OEM HID

    Sound
    Crutchfield has a sale on alpine 1003 for like 600 bucks so might as well do the soundsystem along with the navigation.

    Then of course if you must a bodykit and paint the trim body colour.

    But changing the suspension would be a night and day difference on how the car drives so i would do that first.
