Birthday Present to Myself
 
So my birthdays coming up later in the month and ive got up to $1500 to treat myself with something nice.

Decisions...

New wheels? or a few things like new lips, (cobb intake?), coilovers... or maybe something completely different i havent thought of..

the cars pretty standard at the moment with just a TBE, BOV and tune.

I'm way too indecisive. what to do..?

the whiteline catalogue?

Well what do you want your 1500 to get you ? Handling ? Looks ? Power or do you want lots of small things so it seems like you've spent more ?

Yeah bushings, sways bars would do nicely.

Power is something i probably have to pass on at this point as RAC wont like me too much if i go any further. They have given me the green light for cosmetics though. so RIMs and suspension and looks are on the table.

Good sugestion with the sway bars, i completely forgot about them. I will add it to the list

Best initial upgrades I would suggest are sway bars and short shifter (preferably OEM as linkage is modified for short shift but same gear stick height). The short shift makes the gearbox a pleasure to drive.

Upgrade the stereo system?

Sorry forgot to metion, i have already installed a short shifter. The stereo system is also set too.

I have installed footwell lights, bluetooth system (silly premium models..)

Forgot about the little things..

I'd go swaybars, ht autos make some nice full lip kits, replace gearbox bushings and strut braces and you'll likely have spent your 1500

Personally I would do this ;)
Gets rid of a lot of slop around the place and makes the car nicer to drive.
