Re: Mod chip - the cheap one on E-Bay (ebslopp)

I wouldnt even know where to begin installing this Radio Shack resistor. The one on E-bay gives you instructions on how to install it. If it works, ( and the ECU wont reset itself ), I'll order the one through E-bay.

Mod chip - the cheap one on E-Bay

There is a very inexpensive mod chip on E-bay that "piggy backs" between the ECU and sensor, claiming to give up to 20 hp. It tricks the ECU into thinking there is a heavier load and therfore increases engine power.Lots of good feedback about it on E-bay, saying it really works and its eas...

Re: two tone to mono (Mr. Poopypants)

And how much did it cost? If the option costs $300 at the dealer, I wonder how much they would charge to paint the ex...

Re: two tone to mono (trdvibe)

Re: two tone to mono (savedbyzero)

I dont know if I trust getting them painted. I guess Id have to make some calls to body shops about it. But...if you can buy from the dealer for around the same price, I would just get them replaced. Does anyone out there know how much it costs for dealer replacement or a paint job on the entire sha...

two tone to mono

anyone out there change their grey plastic fenders with the monochrome package? If so...how much did it cost you? I know that this is an option for $300 when you buy from a dealer. Just wondering if it can be done aftermarket. XMan037
