Tint windows. I say this because Its the best mod for making your comfort level better. No more squinting at the road, or getting crazy headaches in traffic. Plus Your car will look cool, and be cooler (in temp). This is all assuming you get some really dark tint.

wheels or K&N Filter. Both are very noticeable differences.

Weight reduction kit. Lighter wallet, faster time @ the track.

On a serious note.

Black Car needs dark tint. Get smoke on passanger windows if you are worried about tickets. Just dont go to dark and you wont get hassled.

Custom Floormat??? Like Autozone ones, or custom diamond plate? icon_cool.gif

I'd go with the tint or wheels. They're both in a totally different price league though.

partially. a K&N combined with new plug wires will probably grab you an extra 2 or 3 horsepower, considering the condition of the old plug wires and the filter


but yeah im gonna go with everyone else on this, tint, then wheels

walmart tint sucks. i tried it on my old grand am and it was the worst experience. the stuff rips so easily and if the window has any serious curve youre screwed unless you want 50 damn seams in it. Anyways back on topic i would say tint and or wheels.

i made it work on the rear glass of my friends miata, well... it was autozone tint, and it took about an hour of wetting and scraping with a squigie tool and using heat from a lighter to shrink the tint.... actually it took hours, but it worked. Its doing good too. Its still there after three months of the convertable top being dropped and raised repeatidly. (cant spell!)
