Default I need your opinion please

Someone wants to buy me a gift for my car and wants to spend under $200. I can’t think of what to tell them I already have most of the stuff I can think of?
thanks

You are right.
I have most of the usual stuff I guess.
Cold air, tune, SLP loudmouth, HID, led map lights
I just wondered if you were in my place what you thought. I can’t think of anything.
You have a nice car. Looks familiar. lol

You looking for performance or appearance? I think a billet rear medallion from Silverhorse Racing would match the color of your car pretty nicely. If you want something more performance oriented you could go with any number of new rear lower control arms from American Muscle and help keep your tires planted under load.

Wow CmcNam that medallion is sweet. that is why I ask the question. I was also thinking about the lower control arms but in this case I need it to be something that is seen. I also like the Lower Grill Inserts that I saw on there web site. thank you!!

Hey,

You can still get some nice add-ons for under $200. As mentioned before, the medallions look really great for appearance or lower control arms will help your off the line performance.

Some other great appearance mods for under $200 could be a chin spoiler, grilles, lights, louvers or side scoops. Some good performance mods could also be springs, under drive pulleys, or even some x or h pipes.

I hope this helps with you decision making process. If you have any other questions feel free to get in touch. Good luck!

-Dan

Thank you very much guys but you will never believe what I scored on craigslist after I posted this. A GT500 rear spoiler brand new in the box $40. I went to a local body shop where I do business and ask what the cash price for getting it painted was. I about fell over when he said $80. I can’t wait to get it on my car.
