Stinger Vibe in Texas!

[noogahz]

Hi all ~

Lurker for a while after purchasing my Stinger since 7/29/2018. Wanted to join this friendly and amazing community for future projects and resources.

I will say there has been more purchases from co-workers, friends and random neighbors/strangers who ended up buying a Stinger model (mostly base/premiums). I wouldn't say I'm the reason they bought it, but they definitely got sold after the test drive.....haha

Just want to get some thoughts and opinions as I am planning to do a few upgrades on the car!

Things done so far -
Audio (2 12" subs, amp, external battery)
Window tint
Hood deflector
Splash guards
Dash cams front / rear (front has offline record capability)

Things planned/planning -
BOV cap
Intakes
Jun BL exhaust ** (probably next as I recently got audio finished)
Springs (thoughts? I use this as a DD for now)
Wheels/Rims (after they wear out?)
Tune (after warranty expires / at least ~1year)

P.S - I do not have a particular goal in mind besides maybe replacing the exhaust. I wanted some opinions and thoughts as I am not a car-person, but have friends who are mechanics etc.
(Sorry for lack of pics, I hardly take any lol)

G’day, welcome to the forum & Stinger Owners Fraternity, I see you have a few mods planned.
IMO I would change your swaybars before you consider a spring change, speaking from experience I personally believe this is all the car needs, unless you want to lower it of course.
Mods are always about personal choice & also about wants v needs, so have fun with your new ride & all the enjoyment it will bring you.

Thank you so much! For the sway bars, would it look something like the Eibach GT 3.3T Sway Bars? I'm not a fan of the lowered springs, mainly due to the area that I live in doesn't have consistent roads.

Welcome and congrats!

Thank you so much! Really cool and chill forum
Does anyone else use other forums or would this be considered the main Stinger forum on the web?

Well I have the Aussie GT3.3T = fully loaded RWD only, just had the Eibach F & R Sway Bars fitted a couple of weeks ago at softest setting to suit inconsistent roads & I left the Springs OE, best mod you can do IMHO.

hey Noo.....Wash here in Big D...sounds like you got a plan....my gt2 just turned 850 miles...lol...had it since August ....either we are hermits or have too many cars,but here's my take....get that baby clear bra-ed at least the front fascia....theres such a big frontal area that makes the car what it is kinda...and if you get a bunch of chips its gonna look like crap....got mine about 90% cleared....looks like a million bucks......now I see you wanna mod....ive had the JB4 in since about the second week I had her.....do yourself a favor and do it....it puts this car where it should have been from the factory...you may have the cart before the horse...you might not want all the other stuff after you have the JB4...I cant reinforce enough of what it does....fun factor times 1000....lol
if you wanna ride holler at me if you come up to D... Wash
