Question If you had $3,000?

What would you do to a stock 10' vert if you had $3,000? I'm thinking I can get a cat back system and a suspension installed for $3k. Any suggestions on what you would do?

Honestly. If warranty wasn't a bitch I'd save up for FI.. You're about halfway there.. Other than that some nice high quality brand name wheels and a drop..

wheels + drop is the first mOD everyone SHOULD DO!!! it changes so much on how the car look from just a drop with wheels and 3K fits that bracket just fine =)

save up a few more bills for new works/volks/etc.

or. used set of rims and coils. that's pushing your budget.

first, always make sure your car's essentials are covered (maintenance, brakes, fluids, tires, bushings, shocks/struts, etc.) nomsayin?

Thanks for the comments

Timmy: Car only has 18k miles so maintenance isnt an issue yet, but I do agree with you and I am covered.

True: No drop for me. I know most people say drop, but I will not be droppping the car. No rims either, I like the stock rims. If I don't get the car wrapped I want to do something performance based I just dont know enough to know what to do first. I have done research but my knowledge base is still too small haha

Officer: wats FI?

110% truth! Drop should come before wheels though if you cant get both at the same time.

Sell your OEM wheels and suspension and buy even more

Akebono BBK and coilovers followed by hotchkis sway bars. Upgrade rims and tires next. Then work on performance.

I'd sell it and get a hardtop, then go from there.
