Hey another 03 levin owner, just like me :yahoo: I was fortunate enough to get mine with some work done on it already. Im regards to what you want to do to yours, i guess you need to decide what you want sorted first; looks, or performance. A set of rims, imo is a good start. Looking forward to how your ride turns out. :lol:

Man, those rims are crazy!! Did you install you CAI? and did you have to remove one of you fog lights when installing it? Im lookin at getting a TRD CAI as well.

i love my CAI sounds sweet when u put the foot down and gives the WTF effect
