Getting Body Kit
So i was thinking of getting the AAS Body kit.. its only 400 buck + shipping so why not? But now i need opinions on
Lowering springs and struts
(Maybe) Carbon fiber Wing?
The best gripping summer tires
Carbon fiber hood (preferably one with a real hood scoop)
HID? (I'll need help for these..)
Someone to do custom tail lights maybe headlights to... (i don't wanna break them...)
I don't just one one option for each and i wanna hear every ones opinions on the items!

well there is no carbon fiber hoods for the alero. if you want an aftermarket spoiler get the razzi spoiler. H&R springs with KYB AGX struts. Hids from DDMtuning.com. If you want a hood get the v fiber hood it is fiberglass. Best summer tires depends on how much you are willing to spend on a set of tires.

Contact CF Tech in Hamilton. They will make your hood for you. If your existing hood is in good condition, you may need to give it to them to make the mould. Won't be cheap, but they will do it. The one I have is the first off for the GA that they made. Back in the day, one of our members from GrandsOntario donated his Ram-Air hood to make the mould. On top of that the finished product from them is stellar!
Here is what they made for us:

The question is why? to look fast?
yes kyb agx and h&r
no to a wing
tires are a personal opinion.....i get whats cheap because I like to burnout and I spend money on track tires
carbon fiber hood? again looks vs performance
taillights, the stock ones are fine
headlights, if you must just clear them |

All things being said. I personally would talk to Clint at Neverdone, the bubble hood fits the alero body best by far! And its light fiberglass, so you get the same benefits as CF without the look (which is overrated without some paint to clean it up)

Wow, I hate you guys...lol Tires here are VERY expensive. Just put Winters on the VW and they were a grand! Just to buy them, installed them myself at work. Firestone Winterforce, about 220 each plus tax. Most I ever spent on tires was a set of Firehawk FZ50EP's, over the counter was 2,200 bucks. That was in 03 though. Spring the ride is getting a new set of Goodyear F1's. My bro just put them on his Firehawk a couple months ago and they are amazing!
