Penny mods are those that are a bit more affordable for those of us on a restrained budget, but still want improvements to their PT., and are made of easily obtained parts. Ratdaddy came out with a few that he got while walking thru Lowes(Ie a cover for the strut tower). Do a search on Penny mods and you will get an idea!

First go to Lowe's and get a roll of reflectix insulation,and replacement tabs/buttons for the hood they ate in hardware car parts. Pop loose the tabs remove blanket...
The insul is two pices of very thin allum. gently peel apart a sheet large enough to cover blanket use 3m spray glue and gently apply allum sheet smooth if needed replace uder hood with new buttons
