I wouldn't consider 40" rims.

I draw the line at 38" rims.

Rims over 20"
Vertical doors
Suicide doors
Underglows
Random LEDS
Crazy Stereo systems
Body kits
Spacers to push the wheel wayyyy out
Flames
Crazy amount of decals
Fat spoilers


Pretty much everything I listed came out of fast and furious so watch it for other examples.

Does AAC have a reputation as being craptastic? Any experience with their products?

so work on cosmetic stuff for a few years,get the car looking just how you want,by then the warranty will be up and you can concentrate on the power stuff.

Most visual appearance only mods... if it doesn't help performance and some way, it just adds weight.

they are, but I'm trying to save him money. I'm steering him to upgrades like footwell lights, cupholder cover, floor mats, etc.

Find another dealer, many overlook CAIs and such as warranty busters, anyway dosen't GM offer their own CAI? Ask him if that would void the Warranty.

I'm not much for stripes or other graphics. I can't get myself to commit to them. Especially vinyls.

I also won't likely upgrade out of my 18" wheels.

For that matter, being the nature of my car, my only mods will have to help performance, gas mileage, reliability, or increase the longevity of the car. Which is why the first things I bought were an RX catch can, rubber floor mats, 20% window tint, and a windshield sun shade.

I was not bashing on rear wheel spacers, I was just saying I wouldn't add such a mod to my car, being that individual opinions on what mods we wouldn't want is what this thread is about, boss.

Fuzzy dice from the Mirror. Curb feelers. Monster truck tires. Ricer aluminum wings. Neon undercar lighting. 5% windshield tint. Chromed everything. Blacked out lights. Leopard skin seat covers. I could go on and on but I think you get the idea
