    1 graduation present

    Ok so im graduating next friday n my father said he would get me what i want. Now I cant chose between 3 things here we go:
    1. Custom system
    2. Body Kit
    3. Rims
    I want a custom system not just a box n amp but that will add weight
    I want the kit cause no one round here has a kitted G but what is ity weight wise?
    Now rims i would like 5 spoke white 17inches ive seen many galants rimed up around here so whats the point I want something no ones seen like the body kit.
    Ok keep in mind when u vote that I want to add the least posible weight to the car.
    YES I STILL HAVE MY GALANT!!

    Uhhh, you forget RIMS.... don't worry, I added it.

    Well, if you don't want wieght then a system is OUT.
    If you get a kit, it will look pretty lame w/o rims, so that's OUT.
    If you get rims you're gonna be like everyone else...

    Sounds to me like you're screwing yourself :?

    A system isn't gonna add THAT much weight unless you think your dad is gonna buy you some SEMA compition full install.. ya right.
    A Body kit is kewl, but with 14" hub caps I got one word... "Ghey"
    Get yourself some rims brother, why not? You're gonna get them eventually and this time they'll be FREE!

    Why are you so concerned about weight? You making a 7g drag car or something? If so.. just get nothing and gut the car for graduation.

    Same here. I'd go rims first or system. I voted rims because if you plan on eventually getting body kit and doing exterior mods, you need rims or it just won't look right. If you won't be doing lots of exterior mods soon, go for custom system, you will enjoy it more.

    Just remind your dad that if you got a nice system in your car it would be a lil over 2 grand. That is enough to get the wheels and the kit (but you'd have to pay for install)

    But remember wheels look funny without a drop.

    Rims should be the 1st thing you ever buy... nothing improves the appearance of a vehicle more than a set a wheels.
