Go up to the Sponsers button, then hit view sponsors. Any of those online retailers are good and trustworthy.

I have to say that this is one of the best first posts ever. I'm sure your brother will really appreciate the effort you're going through.

As 1BADV6 said, take a look at the vendors in the sponsors forum. If you want to take a look at some of the more popular 'for looks' mods check out the 'Body Interior Exterior Lighting' forum. You'll be able to see good pics of most of the products with some reviews from actual owners.

Good luck!

What's your budget? Knowing your budget will make it a lot easier for people to recommend things.

Can I be your brother, (from another mother)? I have an Ivory Pearl 2004 coupe, and I would like an OEM front lip, and all 4 splash guards. Best prices for those you'll find at Grubbs Performance. Thanks bro.
Oh, and private message me with my new address, and to let me know when I can move in, and pick up my presents.

For something cheap that really makes the car look nicer I recommend getting him clear corners.

Should cost you somethign like $40-50.

Not sure how much you want to spend, but taht is a nice start.

If you really want to spend some money then buy him either the Pioneer AVIC-D1 or an Eclipse Navigation/DVD system. Both of these really make the interior of the car much nicer and functional.

Depending on your budget, i would get him some new springs to compliment those 20's.

A safe cheap first mod to buy him would be either clear corners, or a Z-tube (intake tube from a 350z, long story short: better airflow than ours)...check out some 350z forums and see if you can get one used and clean it up (should be fine, its not like they get a lot of wear)

KP Technologies window up and sunroof modules are really nice things to have if he's not going with an aftermarket alarm, although it won't do too much for looks...

And if he isn't dropped yet, springs do change the appearance of a car in a dramatic way...
