What to get (christmas list)

Wife keeps asking me what I want for christmas. I've got like 300 to 350 to spend on stuff and I can't figure out what to get.

things I have on my list are

Adjustable sways
Rims
Shocks
oil cool grills

Other than the sways, I can't get new stuff so I've been scouring the 4sale section and ebay. What else should I look at? There are some interior odds and ends.

suggestions?

A jet engine. I'd go with shocks or the rims.

hmm. I'm looking into your light Lebren.. Maybe I'll just go with little odds and ends.

Are there any issues with using those lights? Like legal issue where you'll get pulled over for something extremely silly?

if anything the cops high five you for it, seems like an un-safety issue. 4th brake light thats all.

Ive spoken with a Sheriff in Ventura California, says it's perfectly fine. They seem pretty lay back here about these kinds of things. And it does not interfere with the brake lights, taps into the parking lights. Or you can hook up a switch to fog lights, cigarette lighter, etc.

I'll have a strobe circuit soon for those drifters out there.
