Question Now that Im keeping the TT, what should I do to it so I stay entertained?

Guys, seeing that the majority of people on here mod the hell out of these cars... what mod will give me the most satisfaction. I already did wheels and suspension. Should I go for more cosmetic things? or should I go for speed? Or maybe do both. I was also thinking of selling my HRE's and going with the sportecs that were recently posted. for some reason I really like them...

Honestly, I don't think anything's going to take your mind off of the Gallardo or other cars. If you do mods, enjoy them, but don't expect them to keep your eye from wandering. It's just the nature of the game...

Me, personally, I've acknowledged the disease, and have resigned to making the money it takes to support another fun car *in addition to* the turbo.

**Cough GT700 Cough**

I have a customer from Canada who has both a Gallardo and a GT800, he honestly told me that he likes his 800 car better than the Gallardo. Obviously the Gallardo is a bit more rare, but he said that wouldn't trade the feeling of acceleration he gets from his 800 for any other car.

I think the best mod for any car is to drive it more.

If I were to do any body kit, It would be GT2 front and GT2 wing. In a perfect world, it would be all OEM parts... but OEM GT2 wing is insanely expensive.

You'd have to seriously consider the PSI package. Contact us for details.

Who's sando? Its all good man, I have a weird name, I think you will get it right sooner or later. As far as the car goes... Im torn between going with the Ruf bumber, and wing... or the oem gt2 front, and the best looking GT2 wing that doesnt cost 7k. Hard decision.
