Just a little info on the car...Bought last year on June 26th, brand new. Finally started getting some stuff done on it and this is the result. Don't forget to sign the guestbook and vote on the poll!

Anyone interested in a Saturn only car show at Satun of Smithtown sometime mid-spring,drop me a line @ TBone1082@gmail.com.

Page is under construction and being redone.

5/10/06 - Lots has happened recently. Car was hit 3 times in the past 5 months and Ive been trying to get her fixed up. New bumper is in the garage waiting to be sprayed, Subs and new Deck are in. Dash kit is color matched to the Instrument panel silver. New Stock Firehawk tires are on the stock wheels, I missed out on having the money for my rim and tire combo by 1 week when I had a full flat. Had the car compounded, polished and waxed professionally to get her ready for this seasons shows and the springs are the next thing on order. Also still paying off the full set of Recaros which will be done sometime before summer hopefully. Like I said, lots has happened with even more to go. I'll take some new pics as soon as I get the interior detailed and the new front bumper on.

2/4/06 - Been a long time to update the site but moneys been tight and Ive been busy. All interior lighting has now been fully converted to Blue Varad LED's. New rims have been picked out; a set of 4 18x7.5" HD "Cool Downs", wrapped in 215/40YR18 BFGoodrich t/a KDW-2's, pics to follow. Eibachs will be ordered within the month. ALso scored a full set of Recaro Redline Seats, front and back for $900 as well as a Black Cat Customs Guage face overlay for $50. Lots of shit goin in soon. Gotta get her ready for this summer.

4/6/05 - Toggle switch and wiring are in the car waiting to be installed for the LED's. Should have them in by the end of this week!

3/15/05 - Varad Hyperled ILK's in! Dome light and passenger footwell are taken care of. Will be putting more in as I get a toggle switch and more wiring.

3/10/05 - Selling tthis he Kenwood subs and going to be picking up a Resonant Engineering 10'SX Spring/Summer along with some new higher end stuff.

1/28/05 - Aero-Wing Spoiler on!

1/7/05 - AEM Intake in!

10/14/04 - With Birthday money, was able to pay off the rest of the money owed on my Subs, Amp and Deck, and also bought new Hyperwhite Fog lamp bulbs and the Ion Logo SPS Shiftknob. Car is lookin much better but its raining out today, will try to get pics up soon.

9/11/01 - Never Forget, 343 Brothers

9/9/04 - I officially start Monday as a Sales Associate at Saturn of Smithtown. Good money = more mods.

Current mods: Powder Coat Blue AEM Intake, 35% Tints, Redline Spoiler Swap, Chrome lettering inserts from Saturn, XM Delphi "Roady", Custom Interior Lighting with Blue Varad Hyperled ILK's in Dome light and under passenger footwell, Sylvania Silverstar Headlight and Turn signals, Superwhite Max Foglamp bulbs, Custom Billet Grille from customcargrilles.com.

Original Pic with nothing 'cept the 35% tints. TBone1082's 2003 Saturn ION

Before and after pics of the grille install. Those little mounting pads are a pain to get on correctly. Lower Grille went on in about 5 seconds tho.

Silverstar Headlights and Turn Signals + Superwhite Max Foglamps look sweet. Much brighter than the OE Setup. I'm gonna get some night shots tonight to show the difference.

TBone1082's 2003 Saturn ION Chrome lettering Inserts giving the car a bit of class. If your interested in them, drop me a line.

Kind of a sucky pic, but I'll get some more up later today. Took a bunch of new pics after yesterdays wash and wax that i have to upload. This thing is a pain in the ass to install if you have to remove the stock decklid spoiler. Best bet is to use a heatgun on the bottom, have someone hold down the trunk and just pull on it as hard as you can. Overall install took about 2 hours.

Hey sweet ass ion you have there! thanks for checking out my baby, which is now gone. It was metallic orange, which was scarcely out for only 2003 with not many out there. In my city there were only 2, one of which was mine. The colour was discontinued as soon as it was put out. Maybe they will bring it back?! It is kind of like the orange Vue colour, but looks a bit different. I miss my baby! My 92 SL2 is okay but definitely not an ion!
