Like I said, I'm still on the fence about it, but would love to know how far I could stretch the $ if i decided to.
I like the K&N Short Ram, damn easy to install, decent on gain and nice sounds, only runs about $300ish

Not interested in fog light and already have illuminated kick plates. Need a spoiler though! Wtf is hu? I'm a noob remember.

HU is audio HeadUnit… make your in car entertainment fxxking more enjoyable. You can opt for those with GPS, a very worthy investment.

Intakes can be found in the want ads pretty easy If you really wanna step up the handling Swift springs and Stillen sway bars will only set you back about $600 all together and they make a WORLD OF DIFFERENCE!!! Prob the best mods for the $$$
I would love better handling! Ever since my last accident, my driving confidence isn't great. I bought a sports car but I'm not really enjoying it just yet.

I would definitely buy used if the condition and price were good. Thanks for the recommendations!

Will do sir. As soon as I decide.

I think I'm OK without a head unit. I don't get the garage most times and don't need to give potential thieves another reason to break in.


All these suggestions are making the money burn a hole in my pocket!

Mr.kenchan, I think the only number-spec I pay attention the most is the figure stands next to the "$' sign...
hi mr.alcheng- yah, i only watch edmunds vids and some online reviews to get a flavor of what the cars is about (a little) but i go out and test drive cars for fun if i really want to get to know it.

add $200 and get yourself a set of PSS to make mr.onzedge proud! where have i heard this before? lol

or titanium bolts and washers for your seats....

yah, i would definitely get a new HU if you have the base, pint. that was one of the first things i swapped out on my ride. i got a basic doubledin pioneer in mine (avh3100dvd) with rearview camera. i will probably upgrade this to either a 4400BH or 940BT using the $ ive been saving with not being able to buy a folding bike... lol
