Default Help me mod!

I got an unexpected refund check from my mortgage today for $1800, so I'm gonna treat it like it was free money and blow it on my GT. But, what to get??

CAI, Exhaust, body kit, wheels?

I just cruise my car and go for the occasional kill when a rice burner wants to play around, but I really have no need for more performance. In which case I think I'd like to go with cosmetic upgrades as opposed to performance. Although a nice exhaust can give me both, plus a nice American Muscle rumble.

Any suggestions? I think I really want a nice body kit, I can have it painted for only the cost of the paint, so I'd just have to figure out how to install it without messin' up the kit or my car!

Legal in Califonia? Cali is strict on emissions and decibels

*edit*

Guess it is legal...

anyway, no welding involved? I can just slap these in myself? http://www.slponline.com/browse_list.asp

I say do whatever to make her sound more throaty, that's my next goal, I've always been fond of flowmaster, but there may be better.

Slp loudmouth are EMISSIONS legal, but they have no mufflers so you need to check if your area requires mufflers or has a sound ordinance.
