Just got an 03 Alero with only 36,XXX miles on it. I'm going to have this car for a while and I want to do some stuff to it but I have no clue what to do. Also, I don't know what to do first, performance, looks, speed, stereo, etc.
Any help would be great. Thanks

welcome to the site. i was in the same boat as you a few weeks ago. had no idea what to do and lots of ideas lol. my biggest bit of advice is use the search button for anything you want help with before asking questions or youll get a lot of neg remarks (personal experience :/ )but this site is awesome and gives a lot of great advice. if you are looking for performance stuff, wot-tech is a great site, and andysautosport has a lot of visual stuff such as body kits, hoods, fenders. and by the way, congrats on scoring one with that low of miles on it! just curious, is it a 2 or 4 door, and what engine?

I'm not really looking to make my car go 0-60 in 4 seconds or somthing like that, but I read some things on LED's in the wheel wells and on the interior and I read some other things about body kits and subwoffers. I think I'm going to start off on the small side and work my way up

welcome to the group man. there are alot of smart people on here with all sorts of knowledge from stereos, to bodywork, leds, turbos, suspension. best you can do is abuse the search button, or be like me and just go through pages of threads.
aleros are great cars to mod, once you start, you wont want to stop. trust me, i've dumped more into my alero than what i've bought it for

Welcome to the Alero family :beerchug:
I'm not really looking to make my car go 0-60 in 4 seconds or somthing like that,
The 4 doors sedan V6 does it in 7.6sec. which is maybe average in today performance but i find it good compare to what my old 1976 chevelle with 350 would do 10-11sec for 0-60mph :rolleyes2:
