Default $350-400 what to buy??

So my car is pretty much stock except a intake. I'm gonna be getting 350-400 bux and don't know what to buy. I'm thinking rims. Any better suggestions?

Note: Not really looking ot make this a drag car just going for suspension,exhaust,rims,and maybe a header. No swap or anything as of yet.

Im not sure how many options your gonna have.. but I'd probably get me some nice headers with that money.. since you already have the intake.. hopefully its a aem CAI if not.. i'd get me one.

There is only 1 (singular) HEADER on our car, and if ure not looking to go fast, yea get some rims, or maybe tint ure windows, maybe even an alarm or head unit.

If you want some performance,you can get some ground controls, and save for new shocks. But if you have stock rims, I would get a nice set of 16's, maybe some rotas, or K1's, even buddy club.

A good header will give you the best power gains of any of the bolt-on mods.

suspension for sure

a good handling car is usually more fun than a "straight-line" fast car

Yeah, I would get a decent suspension and mayb a lip or somee rims, but when you buy ur suspension probably wont be money left for some nice rims and you dont want ugly rims.

Suspension! putting rims on your car without a drop looks hella nasty. For 4 bills I would go for some skunk 2 or ground control better yet get the skunk 2 copies a guy is selling on here and get a set of tokico hp blues. Blues aren't great but they are going to be better that the stock shocks you got on.
