decisions

ok well I've looked at what i have money for. Decided that I won't bother with the engine for now, wait until i either decide to turbo or drop a h22.
but for now I'm stuck...i want to do some body work soooo should I
1) buy a lip kit (preferably wingswest w-type)
2) buy a full body kit (if this then it will be the buddyclub2, havent seen it? check it out www.buddyclub2.com)
3) carbon fiber hood
4) find some decently priced rims as I dont want to spend all my grad money

if you have any other suggestions hit me up, i'm open for whatever

hmm that hurts the team. I didnt have rims for 2 years but they do make the car look damn nice with them on. If you dont want to hurt and feelings go with the cf hood they look good and and are light weight, which are two plus. But my first choice would be rims.

Dude, a body kit and stuff is just going to look dumb with your stock wheels. Save these for winter or something and get some wheels!

haha i just went with a lip, a friend of mine thought long and hard with me. I'm gonna continue looking around the local area for good used rims, they come up quite often so my eyes are peeled, thanks for everyone's help, trying to keep at least 400 in the bank in case of an emergency
