I has a low factory wing on the back.
I'm thinking of stiffeners and coilovers to improve handling
won't be doing much cornering, just city driving and some highway.

Also, best way to inprove visibility from the drivers side and
also inprove chance of being seen by BIG SUV's.....

And that's a good site for all that stuff anyway

The blind spots in these cars are horrible, I mostly leave the rear window
down so I can hear other cars.

There isn't much to make the engine a real performance engine, other than a
swap. Which sucks a lot of money.

Mine leaks. That link I gave has a fix for it. But I stripped the heads
off the bolts I need to remove (in the fake visor) to tighten it.

I want this for it
