put that into basic maintenance, after that figure out a goal for your car, and do your research to find out what it will take to get there. make a budget, and add 50%
modifying cars goes like this: fast & cheap=not reliable, cheap and reliable=not fast, fast and reliable=not cheap.

you can do whatever you want to your car. it all depends on how fat your wallet is and/or how skilled you are.

There's not much you can do with that money, just basic bolt-ons, which your will need anyways.
