Lease-safe mods?

aaronk19 · 03-31-2008, 02:27 PM

Hey guys, so I'm leasing my si and I'm wondering if it would be okay to get the type r valve cover and cf manifold cover? Just making sure none of that would violate the lease. Feel free to post other things that you for sure can/can't do to a leased si. Thanks

Any mod that you can not revert back to OEM is violating your lease, unless if you lease to own and go through with it.

you can do anything you want to ur si as long as u can take it back off

edit like the other guy just said!

bluerocket decals :)

Intake, exhaust, short shifter, supension mods, etc..there's plenty of mods you could reverse later on..it'd suck having to take them off afterwards though, lots of work..

it's not even the fact that you would have to take it off in the end. if you're not going to keep the car or buy a similar car all the mods are going to waste (unless you're planning on giving them to me :)) for more go you should of just leased a stock turbo car or something along those lines.

but you can get honda accessories..right? like the hfp kit?

why did you lease the si.. tried to lease mine to see if i could get the payments down but it was like a 20 diff....but my last car(hummer h3) was 330 a month to lease compare to like 800 a month to buy it so thats why i lease that.

unless you own a busniess and its an expense then you can write it off on taxes.

i'm not hating im just saying it doesnt add up to just spring for the extra 20 bucks to own it and not have to worry about mileage...

Tinting your car is okay. I heard that if you tint your car you don't even have to take the tints off when you give your car back to the dealer.
