[Badger]

Thanks, C-man! I peeled off the badging today (not the Chrysler stuff, that looks good, but the PT Cruiser on the doors and the Touring Edition on the trunk), and it looks HAWT. I can't wait for the grill to arrive so I can complete the look.

Pawpawdiv9, nice work! What kind of rims did you go for? I'm waiting for rims too. Wanted the Cragar SS's for the classic rod look, but they don't make 'em for FWD vehicles, so i went with something very similar looking from American Racing.

On another note, exhaust systems..... how much benefit does one get to change out the header, and piping to one of the aftermarket options? I've already messed with the air box and filter (k&n and removed baffles) and I'll get to the plugs/wires in a bit. So, the last step is the exhaust. Is it really a benefit to go with a Catback or similar with regard to power increase/fuel economy? I do like the dual exhaust symmetry idea.
