Thumbs up What was your 1st Mod?

I am thinking about doing my 1st Mod and trying to figure out what to do. I can't decide whether to Tint the windows, add a Clear Bra, upgrade the Intake or upgrade the Exhaust. All I know is I want to do something and soon, well that is after the initial inspection (just to make things easier).

What was your 1st Mod? What did you think of it? Would there have been another Mod that you would have done first?

Get the clear bra on there first.

My first mod was clear bra then tint then upgraded hids and lighting followed by cold air intakes, grounding kit, hypertech programmer, and exhaust. It depends on what your looking for. Most here will tell you to get a drop asap.

Clear Bra. You will regret it if you do not get it soon after getting your car.

Tint was my first "mod" although I dont consider that a mod but more of a necessity. Then keyhole delete and painted grille.

My first mod should have been a clear bra. Didn't do it, big regrets.

My first mod was tint. Second was a Passport 9500ix. Third was splash guards and fourth was a spoiler(if you call those mods). After that I blacked out the grill. Next on my list is springs or coilovers and spacers, then headlights/tail lights, then exhaust. That will probably be the extent of the modding I do.

I did it all at once. My car came from the dealership with the clear bra and tint. So two days after I bought my car I installed in Stillen Gen 3 intake, Stillen ceramic coated headers, full Borla exhaust. all in the same day/install

I guess technically my first mod was tint but I don't consider that a mod since the dealer had it done for me before I picked up the car.

I had my Stillen Gen3 in my garage before I even got the car. Then shortly after Eibachs.

Once the mod bug bites you all your mods will come pretty quickly lol

tint, relatively inexpensive and had practical functionality.
i dont like the half covered bra look very much and its pricey.

The first thing I got was tint. I didn't want to go too dark though, cause its hard too see and Im not crazy about the "limo tint" look. Then I replaced the fog light bulbs, the stock yellowish color looked ugly.

My first (and last) mod was changing the radio presets.
