Brake and Suspension upgrades would have been the first I would have tackled, what with the lack of serious bits for the powertrain (and always keeping an ear out for strange utterances from the tranny)
Heavier Anti-sway Bars, AGX Adjustables and a liberal sprinkling of Polyurthane would really firm up the ride and really allow more "spirited" driving thru the 'twisties' that Maine is so well known for.

headlights are ILLEGAL put them back to stock........you can get your car towed for that kind of violation

spark plugs that are NOT NGK are a huge waste of time

your exhaust mods and intake mods are pretty much useless without headers

UMM, Didn't it come from the assembly plant with "Coil-Over's"?

Really, I'm just asking....

Why replace coil-over's with .... coil-over's?
Isn't it more the shock and it's damping characteristics that's of interest here?

Enforcement varies state to state depending on your state's motor vehicle statutes and motor vehicle regulations. Some states have regulations adopting FMVSS 108 into their laws by reference and if a lighting device does not meet FMVSS 108 you could be ticketed. That would be IF the officers in your area are aware of this.

Step 1: Acquire some taste.

Step 2: Don't waste money on things like your tail lights that only make it look better to one small, but annoying group of people. Cops.

Step 3: Lose the LED's. Forgive me if I'm wrong, but I believe turning on those SWEET looking LED's in your car while driving is illegal. One more ticket.

Step 4: Like P said, start on the suspension and brakes.
