Default What to do with $1000

My dad is having a ton of trouble selling his car, so he told me if I sold it for a certain amount he will give me $1000 bucks. So I sold it and got the $1000. Now I have no idea what I want to do!!!! I have a 94 Teg RS. There is a few rust spots around the wheel wells that I want to take care of, but I also really want performance mods too. Right now I have an AEM CAI and thats it. What should I do w/ this money???

BONDO. I'd do the body work as best I could myself, and get some performance. If I had that 1000 I'd get HID (discount), some Rotas, and Koni Yellows (front) to go with my new Tein S-Techs.

Get some good tires on the stock wheels, ground controls, and some good shocks =1k. A nice set of wheels will cost you most of that so you would have to get some cheap springs to lower it. If you get springs and leave to stock shocks you will have a bouncin rice boy car.

take care of the rust, and put that money in the bank for a rainy day!! that's what i would do mainly b/c my integra is pretty much done, not b/c i ran out of things to do, but b/c i can't afford to continue to modify it. when i get spare cash then i will do more add ons.

I want to put it away so bad and just save up for something big, but buying stuff for my car is way to much fun.
