Hey guys. I was just wondering if you could help me out with a few things. I've got an 01 GT (manual 5spd tranny) and I am looking to start making some modifications but I am new coming into this. I'm not sure where to begin. Anyone have any suggestions?

Another thing is the hood scoop. It bothers me that the ram air hood is non-functional. Would it be a huge deal to but a new ram air hood that is functional? Would it be a problem because of the location of the intake or for some other reason?

Also, I am looking to get new rims. I want to get 18" chrome cobra R rims but there are so many fakes and phonies out there that are just spinoffs of the real thing. How can I be sure that I get the "real" ones and where do you think I should look for these to make sure I don't get riped off. Any suggestions are highly appreciated. Thanks fellas.
