I'd lower the car at least on lowering springs. If you want a "few inches", then coilovers would do that but they cost more.

Same here. My mom didn't like hearing the price of the F-Sport exhaust I've been eyeballing.

I want it to sound good, handle good, and look good.

P.S.

Heres a list of the items i've found so far.

Joe Z intake pipe
F-Sport Sway bars
Megan Racing lowering springs
25% tint all around
Blacked out tail lights and head lights
l.e.d. light strips on the head lights
Blacked out emblems
Powder coat stock 18" tires black

Get some 700$ exhaust/midpipe combo or just one kick *** used exhaust.


Thanks again

The sway bars have a bigger effect than an intake is what I've heard.

I've looked through the first 5 pages of the member classifieds and haven't found many things yet.
I did find some Megan ez coilovers RWD for $550 and a Gfx lip kit for $450 that I'm thinking about.

Thanks
