    I know its dirty but i was thinking black tail lights, tinted windows, and maybe head light covers. also inlays front and back just can't decide on color, suggestions are welcomed. also any tips on how to get more gas mileage or a tap bit more performance without spending a ton of money.

    Red inlays perhaps? For gas mileage intake and keeping the pedal off the floor

    black inlays + tint + tinted tails would look shmexy and take the orange reflectors out of the headlights

    for mods you could do an intake and u-bend delete at the least

    That car doesn't have a u bend.
    A cone air filter and a plog or ported front manifold will help it breathe easier and help out your mileage.
    I like the chrome SPO grill I just ordered one for mine.

    Yeah I think black inlays would look better than red on a stealth gray car.

    Do a downpipe and tune. More advantages to bribe em. Better fuel economy, enhancements over stock, stronger shifts thus reducing wear, cooler running engine if your stuck in traffic, few other things. If nothing else, tune + cold air.

    ill see what i can come up with but also what is the deal with the thermostats. i heard running a 180 or something is better then the stock one. i figured since my car gets pretty warm sitting in columbus traffic it wouldn't hurt to keep it cooler. what exactly part of the exhaust is the downpipe. and do i need a tune if i do get one?
