First thing first is that I love my Tiburon. It was my first new car and I still remember the day I first brought her home. I've been in love ever since. Sure its not the fastest, or the most popular, and its certainly not the most expensive but it fits me quite well. I initially had big plans for the car. Unfortunatly so did a light pole.
Luckily the damage wasn't as bad as it seemed and the body shop did a steller job of patching the tibby back together. Here she is on the first day back home. You can't even tell there was a single scratch.
That was about a year and a half ago and I've done quite a few mods since then. Heres a short list:
Enkei RSV 17' RIMS
Ingen Short Ram Intake
Borla Dual Cat-back Exhaust
Sylvania Silverstar headlights
Sylvania Silverstar Turn bulbs
Streetglow Red Underbody kit
Tuscani emblems
Red Painted Calipers
Red-Out Taillight Vinyls
Subwoofer mod
Slave Cylender mod
Clear Corners
Door Chime Removal
Interior vent ring set
Billet Short Antenna (Black)
Lately I had been tossing around the idea of selling my tib and moving on to another car, however theres nothing thats makes you enjoy your car much more than a nice shiny wash. I'm gonna keep her. It was my first new car and in 3 more years she'll be paid off.
I think the next thing i'm gonna do is a bunch of suspension work. Eibach Sportline springs and dampers, RRM Strut Braces and some new sway bars.
After that is done I'm hitting the engine hard. I'm still deciding between the Alpine Stage 2 blower or NexGen's Assassin Kit. Whichever one I got with i'm sure the Tibby is gonna scream.
So lemme know what you think of the work so far, i'm very proud of the car I think it looks pretty clean and simple while still agressive and sporty. Any reccomendations would be greatly appreciated. -Chris
