Welcome to the club.
Haya David.....Welcome!!
What color ya got? Sedan?
I would debadge first because its DIY and makes a big difference, you can also look at getting a flip out screen so you can save the DIC.Here's the list in the order to be installed:
Satin finished grilles
Carbon Fiber overlays for arrowheads
De-badging
Tinted tail lights
CAI
Strut tower bar
I haven't decided whether I want to add a 7" in dash. It seems too much of a hassle with the DIC
Replacing stock speakers and adding 4 channel amp
Dual exhaust valance (adding dual exhaust)
Ram air hood
I wanted to paint my headlight housing to color match my car and add halo's in but I guess it's impossible to separate 09 housings. So I may just buy the black housing projectors.
Later on down the line will be rims. Michigan sucks with potholes so I have to figure out if its worth it.
Any other ideas? or comments on the list?
The only suggestion I would have is doing the little things like paint your calipers, and window trim. Maybe down the line get yourself some drilled rotors, and some lowering springs. Good choices would be H&R, Eibach, and CMS. Theres more that I can suggest, but this is good for now.Here's the list in the order to be installed:
Satin finished grilles = Hopefully not the eBay mesh ones.
Carbon Fiber overlays for arrowheads = Hopefully the real CF ones.
De-badging = should be first mod
Tinted tail lights = I had some for sale, but now there gone. But you can tint them with VHT niteshades.
CAI = Lampoons crab, or Injen or make your own.
Strut tower bar = GM strut bar or Racingline strut bar.
I haven't decided whether I want to add a 7" in dash. It seems too much of a hassle with the DIC = this is true....
Replacing stock speakers and adding 4 channel amp
Dual exhaust valance (adding dual exhaust) = GMpartsdirect.com for dual rear valence
Ram air hood = AIT hood (fiberglass or Carbon Fiber) or MPD (expensive, but looks great)
I wanted to paint my headlight housing to color match my car and add halo's in but I guess it's impossible to separate 09 housings. So I may just buy the black housing projectors. = there is a group buy for these
Later on down the line will be rims. Michigan sucks with potholes so I have to figure out if its worth it.

Which grilles would you recommend? I haven't been able to find any other than that.Welcome! I wouldnt recomend the figure grilles. they are held on with zip ties and if your doing the lower grilles you have to drill holes in your black lowers... I think he said the deadline for the group buy is oct 31st.
