Re: Pimping a cinq

Well, moving to styling might help!!

Lowering is a good start, as are some nice rims. A beefy exhaust can help things along nicely too....

As for performance: Air filter, Exhaust, Remapping, Camshaft, Throttle Body mods, Porting and Polishing..theres lots that can be done, its all dependant on wallet size!!

Re: Pimping a cinq

Storm kit is a very nice kit, and will definately help with the pimping

Definately go for lowering (although if you put that kit on, you may have problems with speed bumps.....)

air filter is a must, seems like you are willing to spend a bit of cash so go for the gsr induction kit

( http://www.gsrengineering.com/engine...ducts_frm.html )

As above a big exhaust looks well good and alloys are needed

Uprated brakes are useful aswell....

EDIT- Welcome to the forum!

Re: Pimping a cinq

Check my Cinq out for some quality styling cues ... ignore the Yellow one however, that took all it's styling cues from a dustbin - lol!!

They are just for show ,

Smoothing is just what it says on the tin (so to speak) , It is where u take out all the bits that stick out. ie- the bump strips and the handles...some have done the rear wiper aswell.

Merry xmas

Re: Pimping a cinq

yeah people have taken the gear knob off, but as it is a push down reverse (sporting, not sure about the others), it needs an adapter type thing so the push down still works.

See some of these threads...
