Get some of those kick ass windhshield squirter leds!!!! Those are so pimp...:rolleyes

Id save it til you need brakes pads/rotors/years supply of fuel injection cleaner/car cleaner/lug nuts/air freshener/etc...

Save it til a rainy day when you need some hard parts for your car is what id do:)

Uhm....See, there's a "rice" thread going on in the pits....and buying stuff to accent your looks (unless it's colormatch paint) from an autoparts store such as pepboys, yeah, that pretty much fits the rice category. Don't do it bro.

Get the floormats to match your seat covers....that would be cool. Then with the leftover money, you can get a shift boot and matching shift nob. :thumbsup

how about that flowmaster muffler they have i think its only $70, is that any good, is it loud?
47074, RE: PEPBOYS HELP!!!HURRY!
Posted by 9D9 MITSU RS, May-08-03 11:44 AM
the muffler would be alright. prolly installation cost too, but you'd still save $60.

(sarcasm)hey.. whats wrong with the LED squirters?? didn't you know that if you spend enough money and buy the really expensive ones, they act like a second set of foglights?!?!(end sarcasm

go guy some tools, you could always use tools. yeah. torque wrench and sockets sound good, maybe a breaker bar as well, although a nice steel pipe works just as well. get a few cases of oil, WD-40, breakdust cleaner. Stuff that is actually useful.

I'd get a nice jack with some jackstands.

For looks... I'd probably get the entire set of Meguiars Gold Class or something.
