I'll do rims, then body kit(millenium or SW), then WINGS, then Icd. BTW, what is ICD?

LCD = Liquid Crystal Display, or in other words, TV's in your ride :)

Oh, and to answer the Q, I'd get rims, (if you can find some nice 18"s under $1,500), then kit, then LCD...if the rims are too much, either save or get a kit first.

Id say get the rims cause you would be hard pressed to get buy a bodykit get it installed and painted for 1500. Especially the Millenium!!

Get the rims first. A body kit on a car with stock wheels looks out of place. ;)

definilty Wheels first. because nothing makes a car like a nice set of wheels. then the kit or LCDs i personally asked myself that very question...
19inch racing hart > 7in LCD in factory location > then kit after winter is done.
I dont have any of the 3 but rims would be my choice. I dont like when i see a car with a nice body kit with stock wheels. It makes the body of the car look too bulky if you dont have rims.

no matter how nice of a kit you have it WILL look like ASS if you have stock wheels.

I gotta disagree...I've seen some NECO member's Cougars w/ phat kits (mostly Roush) w/ the factory chrome 16"s that look tight.

I think i found some rims i am going to get! A member is selling 18" gunmetal Velox VX-8 and i am going to get them ASAP after x-mas. I might still be able to get a body kit before spring if everything works out:)

Yeah...check out Zman's car from Empire NECO - his $h!t looks tight, and he's still on stock wheels (last time I saw, anyway...)

Yea Zmans rims are dope, they are 17inch stocks with the center caps cougar head painted to match.
AssassyN - I would recommend Velox VX-8's through a certain dealer I know and did a previous GB through.

stock 17in wheels are nice. like on the ZN and others....the 16s just look wierd with kits. too small IMO
