yea, keep an eye on ur bank account! cause after a little while on these forums you're gonna get the "mod bug" and ur gonna drain that baby so fast ur heads gonna spin!

...seriously though, don't start tinkering unless ur ready to do it right up until you sell your car - it's just too addictive.. welcome to the forums..

Welcome.

Two words:

TIRE FEATHERING

Not sure if it applies to 05's or not.

2005 does not have tire feahtering issues. As far as I am aware of the only problem i hear with 05's is the window grease problem that they all have.
