Hi All,

Here's my new R/T after all the exterior mods were finished:

1.  Windows Tinted
2.  Window and Sunroof Vent Shades
3.  Sill Guards
4.  Fender Vents
5.  Rear Splash Guards
6.  Front 7 piece Billet Grille
7.  R/T Emblem on each Door (still on back-order) 

Interior/Engine Mods include:

1.  K&N Filter (Until a real Cold Air Intake Kit is available)
2.  33 piece Dashboard kit (Platinum Burlwood)

We're very happy with how it came out...

Cheers,

Avenger_GA

Great looking car man. Pretty much what I would/plan to do with mine (once I get it).

They have them on ebay for $219 plus shipping. I just ordered the cheaper upper grill chrome dress up kit on there for about $25, as it gives a similiar effect, for a fraction of the cost. It does not include the lower 3 areas though, so that is the only drawback.

E-bay for the 7 pc. Billet Grille and R/T emblems for the front doors...
Autotrucktoys.com for the Air Deflectors (Windows, Sunroof and Front), splash guards, chrome fender vents and sill guards...

A quick browse of autotrucktoys.com, and they seem really expensive.  Everything seems to be more then just buying it from mopar.

Actually, all of those can be found on ebay a little cheaper. I ordered the splash guards yesterday, just for the rear. There is a 4 piece set on there as well. Man I can't wait for the aftermarker to pick up!! This is the first car in years that I am not leasing, and I have big plans for it. The wishlist (dream list) in my head is growing by the day. : )'

Heres's my thoughts on what I might do to it in the next year or two.
Cold Air intake
1 - 1 1/2 inch drop
side skirts and rear skirt (nothing tacky, clean yet agressive)
some kind of hood mod- scoop or vents, something to set it off
rims, think I will stay in the 18 inch
muffler, something with a better growl (probably the new flowmaster)
I am already in the hunt for replacement speakers all around, and that whole area is still up for debate. (do I or don't I want the BASS
good performance plugs
HID conversion for the headlights (love the bluish lights)

And lastly, and this is costly and will probably never happen, but add a turbo or supercharger. They both are expensive, and I don't know if I am wanting to void the warranty, cause I am sure those would do it. But wouldn't that just be nice?

That's all for now, anything I am forgetting? lol

In reference to a body kit.... Razzi makes a very good looking body kit for the avenger.  It even fixes the rear of the car.

Actually, most of my parts HAVE come from E-bay and Mopar parts... my wife <quickly> pointed out that SHE found the same stuff I was going to order much cheaper than Autotrucktoys.com, as I had stated above (a check of the invoices confirmed that she was indeed correct). 

Just added the rear trunk mat (really works awesome to stop things from sliding around)...  Flowmaster muffler and Jet chip are next up... unless a cold air in-take kit comes on the market before I find those items at a reasonable price.

BTW, the Boston Acoustics 6 speaker set is absolutely awesome (if you can find one with them from the factory).

Cheers,

Avenger_GA

Awesome dude, PLEASE report back on that Jet chip and muffler, I am highly interested to hear your experiences with both.  Did you notice an increase in mpg with the air filter?  Also, can you post some pictures of the interior of your car, I am interested in what the dash looks like.

Hey Avenger_GA - any chance of getting a photo of that dash?  I'd really like to see it.

Dash kit had a defect in one of the main parts... awaiting a replacement and once applied, the photos are coming your way.
