    Hello

    Noob here in pa. i have a 2008 base model with 65k miles on the clock. We(this is the wife's daily) purchased the car with 18k it was a rental ( i know i know). But the car has been good. Tranny replacement under warranty due to a hesitation when shifting from R into D usually in the mornings. Only adding the usual brakes tires, and oil. I am about to chance out the coolant .

    I dont really have any performance mods in mind. But i am interested in adding the fog lights to my lower turn signals. And cash depending do a leather interior swap.

    Welcome to the forums! Sounds like you'll have a happy car soon enough.
    Irridium spark plugs last 100k mi and work just as well as copper. Copper is a waste on N/A and only lasts 15k mi. Don't use Platinum.
    Use 195* tstat unless you can thoroughly explain why not; 99.9% don't need a lower temp.
    Almost any oil filter, ever, is of higher quality than ACDelco. Spend $6+.

    Thanks for the warm welcome!

    I would really like some tint! hopefully in the spring i might try it. It would probably be easier to pay someone to tint it. I would have a hard time with the defroster lines in the rear.

    What are other appearance mods other than wheels and tint? dont really want to tint any of the lights!

    You could throw some GXP or GT(P) wheels on it to improve looks there. Put stock dual exhaust on it. GXP rear spoiler. SE front lip.
