Ok fellow SE & SXT owners........... :wink:

Let's see if we can get a list of the mods you have done since purchasing your Chargers! Separate your lists into "Performance" vs. "Non Performance" enhancing modifications, and then what's on your wish list.

Here's mine:

Performance

Zoomers single exhaust cat back :rockon: http://home.earthlink.net/~spoonerock/spoonerockchargersxt/

Non Performance


Window Tinting (35% on all side windows & rear window) :love:
Zinik Z5 Ikeda 18" Wheels :cool:

Wish List

CAI (probably Airaid) :alien:
6 disc CD Changer w/MP3 :headbang:

well, i havnt done anything YET(just got it less than 1 week ago).

but i do have plans. I dont think i want to do any performance mods short of a CAI for some growl. Had i been about the performance i would have gotten the hemi. i was going more for looks so im going to do some aesthetic mods.

The List:
-tints (prolly 30%... not sure whats legal here in miami) but legal tints all around
-cabin air filter
-honey comb grill w/ classic scripted charger emblem
-spoiler
-front air diffuser, rear air diffuser
-window air diffuser
-autostart
-maybe a radio upgrade. (ive been hesitant on changing the radio to anything NON-factory because im not sure how it will look wit that grey dash trim. if anyone has changed the headunit to anything non-factory send me a pic of how it looks)

- and maybe a CAI.

I've only had my '07 SE for a couple of weeks, and I replaced the radio last week... and the dash kit from Crutchfield.com looks nice! I'll post pics soon. The only problem you may have is with the wiring harness. The one I got from a local "custom stereo" shop either had the power wires in the wrong place, or the factory plug somehow is missing it. So I had to splice into the power wire for the cig lighter. Works and looks great though!!

OK, I'll play

Wish List Performance

Zoomer's Dual Cat-Back Exhaust (just don't have 1100 to throw at a new exhaust on a new car, just yet!)

Volant or K&N CAI

Wish List Non-Performance

Dodge OEM Spoiler

Park Distance Sensors

iPod integrated adapter (if one ever comes available)

Now that I have a third toy worthy of upgrading, I have to further divide the funds set aside for such projects...so getting these will take some time, but in my opinion it is better to do it in stages anyway...spreads the fun over a long time.

Well...the only thing so far I have added are rear molded flaps. I couldn't stand the crap that kept getting on the backesnd.

WISH-LIST:

Rear Daytona color matched spoiler
Honey comb grill (I do like the Charger Script idea too)
25% or 30% Tint all around (both are on the illegal side but what ever is just a little darker than legal)
Auto-start (for cold Wisconsin morns)
chin spoiler (looks cool)
Rock blocker 20% tint for the rear, blue for the heads and fogs
CAI (when it comes out)
Dual exhaust (zoomers sound the best, but I have to start saving more pennies)

I think that's it for right now... :whistle:

Here are pics of my new spoiler and my badge removal. I had the dealership take off the 3.5L badges when I had it in the shop for the spoiler. I also upgraded the wheels to the 18" RT wheels.

Hi all!

Already added to my Black SXT...

  • Two tone Katzskin leather seats (charcoal & silver). Works great with the rest of the interior.
  • Rain Guards. Also looks great, and they're pretty much a necessity in Seattle.
  • Matte black '06 Charger R/T grille, sans logo.
Looking to add in the near future...
  • Spoiler. According to the parts guy at my dealer, the only thing available from Mopar right now is a matte black (like the R/T).
  • Door entry guards.
Neither a painted spoiler, or the door guards are available yet. I just need to be patient. Although that matte black spoiler might look good with the Metallic Black paint.

I had not heard about the Zoomers do-dads, but after checking out their website, I'm intrigued.

Hey Silver Steel...I love the wheels. Beautiful!

if i buy them i wonder if they'll squeak like the ones i have now :sad:

Just checking in:

Performance Mods (though, probably not much performance here):
1) Mopar Catback exhaust
2) Fram Air Hog (air filter) - I'm trying this one out - I saw another guys post about how he felt that he got the same thing out of the "Air Hog" as he did from a true CAI.

- With those 2 "Performance mods", I'm really not sure that I got much of a "boost". - I may try the Jet Chip mod that Spoonerock added to his car. I may do that in a month or two.

-----------------------------------------------------------

Non-Performance:
1) Alpine CDM-7871 CD/Rec Head unit (from previous car) / (3 sets of line outs)
2) Kenwood KAC 746 4x35w (75w peak) amplifier for the 4 speakers.
3) Polk DB6500 6-1/2" component set (6-1/2" in door / Tweeters in Dash)
4) Polk DB690 6x9" 3 ways in the Rear deck
5) Power Acoustic (or something lke that) 300W amp for the Sub
6) JBL 10" Tear drop Sub Tube (in trunk)
(Street wires 16 guage / Monster line level cables)
