will you adopt me?
Anyway... that isway better than yankee tix ( and i'm a yankees fan ) you got the mother beat! The axle-back takes about 10 mins to do. you can save on that. But intalled and all that preped and the spoilerproperly painted soundsa lil over. I'd throw in some louvers. Not a fan of the 1/4 windows at all! and it wouldlook badass. If you go with wheels you'll need tires and will double your budget.

thats why i suggested 18's, easily can get a sweet looking set of 18's for 1200, 20's for around 1800...but if he has factory 18's i say body kit all the way!!! it will make his friends envious, far more envious than a spoiler will, and exhaust like i said i would just let him buy that...surely he has a job and it would only take putting a little away for a month to be able to buy it

I'd say wheels, or window louvers, window tint, or a full body kit, you should be able to do better then that, I did my own axcel back and it was the first thing i ever did to a car besides oil changes.. it's super easy

yea im only 17 and i think the tune and cai is a great idea if you dont get him a full body kit...whats an extra 25-30 hp anyways? plus you save a little bit of fuel and his engine will love you for letting it breathe more air and cleaner air
