99 Ford Taurus Customization?

[c_hayhurst 10+ year member]

I just paid cash (actual hundred dollar bills //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/toast.gif.bc0657bf54b9ee653b6438524461341e.gif ) for a 99 ford taurus. Since it's paid for, I am considering any exterior customization options. Any websites you could suggest?

And before you feel compelled to point it out, yeah I know, it's a taurus, not a civic. Just humor me, okay?

Thanks.

What exactly do you want to do to the exterior?

Suspension? Wheels/tires? Body kit? Shaved handles? Debadge? Grille? Taillights/headlights (replace bulbs, complete setup, smoked, clear, etc)?

I know Eibach has some lowering springs.

Import has some clear front turn lenses.

Of course Brembo has some nice brake rotors.

Razzi and Erebuni both have four piece body kits available.

I don't know if you're going for performance or styling ... and how much money you're willing to spend //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/smile.gif.1ebc41e1811405b213edfc4622c41e27.gif

BTW, congrats on the purchase. It's definitely nice to purchase it in cash and not have to worry about payments.

I really haven't decided yet. I'll probably go for enhancing engine performance a bit then look into body trim mods. Really, I am looking to get a sense of what is out there and learn more about options available for customizing/enhancing a vehicle.

Yeah, I already bought a car on finance once and got it repo'ed. Between the car payments and the insurance, I was paying almost $600/month on a 1993 Infiniti G20 worth $6k. Screw all that.

In all fairness, they are nice little cars, though. I'd like to own another one. heh.

While the Taurus isn't a popular car to customize, there are still quite a few aftermarket parts to choose from //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/smile.gif.1ebc41e1811405b213edfc4622c41e27.gif
