Default Need a list of aftermarket parts to get.

Alright, well I live in the northeast, and everyone knows that summer is coming to an end and winter is around the corner, which brings snow and what not, so I have decided not to put an parts on my car except for small things till winter passes. This does not mean I am not going to buy them. I need everyone's help to post links of aftermarket parts, put the prices too, and if you want, add a picture as well. Pretty much I am trying to get a list of all the parts for my car and the prices.

since his sig says an 06 si, im going to assume that its for a k20z3. if u want some suggestions, start small and work ur way up. but if u are planning on boosting one day, then save the money and dont buy an intake or header since both will be null if u boost.

http://www.showstoppersusa.com is a good place. all prices include shipping and are usually pretty quick to take care of everything. start with a nice exhaust system (winter, summer, whatever), comptech short shifter, lowering springs, and if u wanna lose some weight go for a carbon fiber hood. u can also do things that dont cost that much such as painting ur valve cover or ur calipers. little things that dont affect performance, but make it look a little sportier. hope that helps some

I am not too worried about money, as I will not know how much I will have at the time I want to by things. That is why I want everyone to post any thing and everything. Yes my car has the "k20z3" in it.

That is a good site and I have been looking at it a lot. I never thought of painting the valve cover, I am probably going to do that soon. Any special paint needed for that? and or the calipers.

in my opinion don't paint the calipers leave them alone, but yes that's my opinion to each their own. good luck!

for the valve cover, i have heard that krylon wrinkle red spray paint is the closest u can come to jdm red as u can really get. i might be wrong, so dont quote me on that. u should be able to get it at sherman williams or online. i dont think autozone carries it but again, i could be mistaken. if u are looking for something to just tinker around with while its cold, stick with something like that... because u spend a few minutes pulling it off and then go inside where its warm to paint it i would also recommend exhaust and a header (when a better one is available). those are just some thoughts. find some good shoes for it as well.
