New guy

Post by joker »

i just bought an 06 Red Vibe. What and where do I start aftermarket.I own an 02 ws6 Trans Am. I know how to upgrade that , but this is a whole new world to me. Any help would be greatly appreciated. I am getting the windows tinted on monday , Iwant them to blackout all the rear windows , but I am not sure if it is going to be legal.
