first and foremost imo, i would buy a clear bra on the bumper. I think most G owners will agree with me on this one!

Clear bra is definitely a good idea if the car is new or if the bumper is still in good condition

Thanks for all of your suggestions! =)

I'm more about looks than performance though... anybody know where I can get some inexpensive rims. I don't mind used....

Check the Marketplace for used sets or any vendor specials.

If you're just going for looks I'd get a clearbra (unless you plan on a body kit in the near future). Then get a nice set of rims, lower it and tint the windows.

If you are purchasing it and making payments, dump the rest into the car...or as Calvin said fill up your tank another ten times LOL!!!!

On a serious note if you must mod... save some more money, get some nice wheels, drop it, camber kits, and call it a day. Oh yeah and get some clear corners.

most rims that you'd want for the G cost more than the $1k you have to spend....I would buy a Gialla grill and get it painted ($450), 15% Tint ($250), Clear corners ($40), PIAA Extreme White bulbs for Clearance/Licence/Side marker lights (???).....you might have some money left over for gas
