    **WINTER MODS**

    Ok lets see em. This is the time to get some of those nifty and non/expensive mods done so you can floss heavy come spring/summer time. I'm curious and I'm sure everyone else on this board wants to know whats to come of you 8g. Well this is the place to put it.

    Here is my list (will update if needed):

    - JDM Mirrors Install
    - Redline Hood QuickLift
    - Re-wiring Pod Gauges ---> DONE
    - JDM Headlights and Grill ----> DONE
    - Addco Rear Sway Bar
    - Interior (Suede and Painting Trim Pieces)
    - Installing JDM Front, Cyber Sides and Rear (More towards the spring actually)
    - 6G74 Swap (Gathering Engine and Misc Parts for Spring Install)

    I got too many plans for all 3 of the Galants. I am just going to do whatever I can...but most of the attention is on the 7g though. Once the holidays are over..I can start moving along with the upgrades on the Galants.
