USA New Trix Owner

What's up guys, I just got my 2005 XR two days ago and am loving it. This is the first stick I've ever owned and will not be going back to the witchcraft magic that is an automatic. I had to replace my last car, '93 4Runner because of failed smog and low compression in 2 cylinders and a leaking rear main seal, Replacing the motor would have cost atleast $4k. I miss the Runner, but doubling the gas mileage is so nice.

I'm looking forward to modding the new car and making it look nice and clean. Major things I'm looking to do first are tint the windows, replace the carpets (didn't come with any), and get some new wheel's on it. Any advice on what to do is greatly appreciated.

Congrats on the purchase & welcome to TN. Let the modding begin! It's a ruthless little bug.
