Evening everyone hope all is well. i have been using your site for a few DIY stuff and mechanical info when i need it cause well google brings you guys up all the time lol ... and instead of googling i figured id just join the Tib network lol. anyhow on with the intro... ill be sure to keep it somewhat short and sweet.

Names Bobby im 24 and Active duty Army in the Rocket/Missile field artillery branch. I've got an 07 Tiburon GT limited or atleast thats what the vin reads lol. had the car for almost 2 years. bought it for $10k at 44k miles. havent done any major mods till january hit... mostly cosmetic... heres the list :) Pics will be posted soon

Cosmetic
Rally Red ( factory of course)
Saber Platnium FWD 17's gloss black with a little crome.
D2 racing pro lowering springs ( 2.0 F/R)
5% tinted windows
3 10' subs ( the factory 500 watt sub and 2 Rockford Fosgate P2 10's)
1 Kenwood Excelon XR-1S Mono Amplifier... hits pretty hard.
Kenwood DDX-419 touch screen CD/DVD ( yes i made sure i bypassed the e-brake ground so i can watch dvds wherever and whenever i want but havent needed to do it yet although with the system activated and Batman playing is better than a movie theater lol)
UnderCar LED's
Interior LED's
A/E's V3 on order and will arrive this week.

Performance
NGK iridium plugs
Injen CAI
JET V-force programmer
Mufflers eliminated but put the factory square tips cause it looks goofy without them lol.
so yea the basics

Future plans after deployment
3.8 Genesis swap w/supercharger and Man Trans+ few goodies ( but a daily driver just incase i want to drive it for the week other than my bike or truck lol)
factory body but with fender flares and maybe better looking bumper but i like it smooth. The flares are just to hide the rims and tires a little more.

Welcome to the NT community. Nice and clean! I have the same year but a GS. I agree w/ the spoiler. Either go with a high rise or wingless. You may also want to look into getting some NIA eyelines and if can afford it, the Hana Bodykit. Those will definitely change the look of her. Either way, have fun modding.

lol thanks and i looked into those eyelines you were talking about from sharkracing.com and well from the looks of it ill have to make my own which will be cake lol. and as for the cost of a highrise spoiler.... around me within driving distance cost ranges from 150.00 -270.00 but they are either broken or scuffed up pretty bad. i could order one online but im deploying soon so i dont want to get too in depth with the mildly time consuming mods.

Btw i just ordered the Hana Bodykit ... looks like my kind of cosmetic setup. thanks for the reference
