What are your 2008 mod goals / wish list?

[tasdrouille]

For the Elantra:

- Complete lower grill block: This one is ready, I just need to install it on the car, will do next week. It does not look all that bad, but will have to pass aesthetic inspection. If the GF rejects it, I plan to make an ABS one with paint and clear coat.
- ABS half belly pan a la autospeed
- Active upper grill block.

[Lame Mode: ON]

Only thing on the list so far is a GPS. Would have saved about 50 miles last year.


I'd like to get one tank over 30 before gutting the interior and getting Ti license plates and lugnuts.

looking forward to that one as well.

Probably going to sell it on here. now if I rebuild it or not before doing that is another story. This motor has some fame going for it now....over 369K miles now and still going strong.

You've got my curiousity piqued. Weatherproof and biodegradable?

[trebuchet03]

Well, not biodegradable - it just won't be a road hazard (it will break apart rather than break a car)... Although, I should see how much a sheet of soy plastic is That would be weatherproof and biodegradable.... Just more expensive.

I have no plans I am just going to drive my car 'as is'

[QUOTE=MetroMPG;11653]With the worst of the '07/'08 winter in the rear view mirror, thoughts turn to plans for the return of tinkering weather (for those of us stuck in more northerly lattitudes...)QUOTE]

I honestly enjoy my two HPVs more than my car- so I plan to get another enclosed velomobile when the one I have wears out (and finish putting that VeloKit on my trike).

I would like to cut the back off an Aspire to put one wheel on, but that is financially hard: getting project room tied up. Mainly a dream!

I feel guilty since I have not done a thing to my Aspire, although I have been looking into fender skirts and air dams/skirts all the way to the front wheel.

Finish installing a manual active grill. I've installed the actuator cable, but need to build the hinged inlet in the nosepiece.

Install a tach on the dash.

Convert running and tail lights to LED.

Do some work on the latch release mechanism on my boattail's hatch.

Modify and install the reshaped windshield.

Upgrade my underbelly panelling to aluminum sheet if I encounter a reason (servicing, etc.) to need to remove it this year.

My goal is to use my bicycle to displace as many vehicle miles as I possibly can.

I'm in car limbo right now so I can't comment on any modifications... I think I am inheriting the '92 Corolla now so I will need to get a wish list going for that. First up is instrumentation, regardles of the vehicle.

- Flat Wheel Covers
- RH Mirror Delete cover
- Windshield wiper cover
- Lower Grille Block with removeable plugs
- Upper Grille Block
- Complete underbody panel
- Enhanced tire spoilers
- LH Mirror faring
- Sell the Conti's and get new Integrity's

My goal is 70 MPG at 60MPH. Currently, with temps in the low 70's and with the integrity's I can reach 64MPG AT 60mph.

Here is what I have so far:
