Is there any modification (big or small) you wish you could undo OR wouldn't do again if you had the choice to ?

If so, what was/is it ??

I have been thinking on this topic and I can't come up with one of my mods I regret.

Removed the nitrous kit

Wasn't happy with treadlife of Dunlop SP9000 tires, replaced with Cooper tires

Changed the suspension filler panel

Changed the leather on the shifter and brake handle boots twice.

Bought and sold a dash pad cover

Removed the door edge guard from the grill

Got rid of the Borla exhaust tips, tried four other sets and went back to the Borlas

Seven different kind of mufflers

Sold Paxton headers and installed long tube custom headers

Installed and years later removeda steerring wheel ring

Installed and removed six months later a black & white leather steering wheel cover

Installed Shimmers in the rear bumpers, then removed the bumpers

Installed then removed rear mud flaps

Installed and changed MTD COld Air Intake

Installed and remnoved lower suspension braces

Installed then replaced an upper suspension brace with RealRod brace that moves up & down

Installed stainless frame cover infront of rear wheels and removed later due to larger rear tires rubbing them

Probably more (not counting engine swaps)

Next time I'm staying stock!

Everything was done when I purchased my 2000 Prowler. The hardtop is what really sold me!

Since you removed that door edge from the Grill you need to apply for a refund from Alley Cat. He doesn't keep good records and will gladly send you a refund.
After I removed mine my Car Ran at least one second faster in the quarter mile. Best UNMOD I have ever made.
I have asked him to repay me the 1000 pennies that I sent him over 3 years ago.

All my other mods are fine. Like the Lambo doors the best....(well at least second to the Paxton SC).

i haven't done alot, but have not regreted any of them...
it seems everything i've done has turned out better that i imagined.

love my flames, love the infinity spoiler, thrilled with the Tom Mills kit, AC's chrome grill system is first class,

I haven't installed the Borla system yet or driven the car with the k & n filter, but am sure they will be equally as pleasing...

next on my list for this spring is a dash kit from Superior Dash, some Shimmers and the clear side lights.

next winters projects: polished calipers & knuckles, paint the A arms black and upgrade the speakers....

wife will be ready to dump me by then......

Dan,, Better not wish for something too much. Judging from AC's past antics, he might ship your 1000 pennies back to you "freight collect". Your refund could cost you some big bucks. LOL

With my headlight replacement panels having louvers to match the grill it was just a lot of chrome up front competing witht he chrome headlight casings and not having money for more mods but always wanting "change" I decided to remove the chrome. I got my money's worth out of it. I want nothing to do with AC's lawyer!

Fortunately, all the mods I have done (painted bumpers, chrome grill, custom side panels and hardtop) are all easily removed and stock parts (which I kept) reinstalled!
