New SS/SC owner, PICS...

Hi guys (and gals?)

Picked up my 2006 SS a month ago, been around this website before, and after reading a couple of posts, I decided to go with a SC instead of a SS2.4...

Was about to go with G85, but the price was a bit high for my budget, and did not liked the recaros (already have Sparco Torinos from my previous car, not sure If I'll install them, the leather interior is very comfortable)

Here are the pics when I got the car (was raining!)

As you can see, had the dealership install a regular coupe wing.





I just picked up my lower radiator grill from the dealer and removed the wing(holes are currently covered with tape, a body shop will fill them next week...




I won't do much mods on it... it's my daily driver..
Probably a Ingall TB, already ordered an Autometer Ultralight 2 boost gauge in PSI(Canadian SS/SC come with a gauge in kPa), and maybe a drop but I'm not sure about this last one, The suspension is firm enought, I don't want it any lower or stiffer(with the front lip already low, driving in deep snow is a problem when you're lowered).

1st car was a 1987 Sunbird Sedan (2.0 OHC w/auto)
then I got a 92 Sunbird SE Coupe with w/3.1L and manual tranny while a friend of mine had a 90 Sunbird Turbo.

after that I got a 99 Accord Coupe 4cyl, in san marino red. Had a couple of mods, including, drop, 17" wheels, aem cai, sparco seat, etc...

here's a pic



Car was running great but got a new job and had some money so I decided to buy a new car and needed something with a bit more power than the accord!!.. so here I am!

sorry for diggin' up an old thread, but how difficult was it for you to have the dealer put on a normal wing? Did they charge you for it, etc..
