I'm sure he ment do the wheels, using the '2 cents' as an expression. ;)

My vote is for none. :shock:
I suck at helping because I'm 'all go'. Well, almost.

I say air right cause looks like you already got wheels. i'm not sure what an air ride does but I saw it on a 300M at carlisle last year and it was nice you can have it lowered then normal height id do that.

Am I the only one who thinks body kit, if anything?

I agree with the "more go than show" attitude, but your car is already lowered with wheels, not to mention the crazy shit you got going on with the hood and trunk. Unless you've got a lot under the hood, your ride is obviously more show than go (which is cool if that's your thing, I'm not going to dog it at all...) so I'd suggest a PAINTED body kit since your car is already lowered with wheels.

In order (my opinion, obviously)

1. PAINTED body kit
2. New wheels (non-chrome preferably)
3. Air ride
1998 R/T coupe - Full bolt-on's and some extras *SOLD*
1998 S-10 ZQ8 - Shaved and slammed *SOLD*
1997 Cobra - CAI, X-Pipe, Flowmasters, 3.73 gear, short throw.....gettin' there.

You've gotta ask yourself a question... it seems like your going for show but how much show are you doing before you deceide hmmm... I wanna start doing go mods to go faster. If you think that you're going to stick with show and dont' give a rats ass about go fast mods... then sure go with the air ride. But if you decide to want to do "go" mods then you might regret the air ride since it'll be heavy.

All I can say is... if you go show... you've GOTTA do it right, one because you wont' win shows, and two, you won't get respect and all you'll get is nothing more than laughts... I bet you already know all that but I'm saying it for people that may not realize it.
