$1000!

![Default](/forum/images/icons/icon1.gif)
I have $1000 to spend on my baby and want the most bang for my buck. I've got no pending maintenance issues (hoses, tensioners, brakes and rear hub bearings already done). I could upholster the front seats, Ademesh has a hard shell tonneau cover that looks sweet or maybe a windblocker. I have lowering springs and could perhaps do that. Any suggestions?

I have chrome Revolvers and I kinda like the old school look. If I did switch it would be Coventry Hornets.
Here's how it looks now.

the link below is the hard shell tonneau I'm considering.

The windblocker would be a good choice if you ride around in cool weather.
I know that I can go outside and it doesn't feel cool at all, then, once I am going 75-80 down the highway, it feels a LOT cooler!

There is at least one member who has the cover you are thinking about, but I don't remember it being a two-piece unit. I could be wrong. Maybe they will post with their thoughts and a picture of it installed.

sherbercars did a mod to remove his rear seat and had a nice custom tonneau cover looked like a single piece (included a custom glass windscreen) otherwise - +1 on new wheels

I guess I'm lucky (touch wood) but I have a pretty much code free car. I put dual subs in so the audio is good enough for someone who's hearing has been destroyed by years of rock & roll at way too high a volume. If I wanted to spend the money on maintenance I would probably do the transmission filter and fluid.
