$2000 left.... need opinions
OK guys heres the deal, I got a largeer bonus than I anticipated so I talked the wife into letting me get some aftermarket stuff. I already ordered Espelir springs and will probably wait for the RB exhaust to finish the 2nd production run. But now I have 2k left. Should I upgrade the stereo? Buy rims? Body Kit? Other mods? I was thinking about getting the CZ stage 1.1 but I think imma wait a bit for a ecu upgrade just for the fact that there are so many companies working on development now that theres bound to be a hp/price war soon. Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks,
Will

I think you need to decide whats important to you. I would spend the money on handling improvements and power. Sway bar, springs, lighter wheels, etc.
Maybe a coilover and sway bars.

Re: $2000 left.... need opinions
To protect your investment in your new vehicle, you should pay for all that stuff to be installed on my car and i'll test it out for you..
Actually, I'll be getting my Stage I back,anytime now.. We can meet sometime and you can decide if you like it. I'd reccomend it as the most bang for the buck.. but if you ever go FI or anything you may end up replacing it. I don't think any piggyback/ecu flashes are going to be much cheaper than $500..
I don't think 2k is enough for a full body kit with painting..
2k is good for a decent stereo, depending on what you want to do with it..
Rims are nice too!

Well the veilside V1 is only about 1k unpainted +shipping but I have some connections with paint booths and some guys I know do sick *** customs paint jobs. So thats why it was an option but I think I might just get some new rims and a couple subs. Probably stay with 18" for cost reasons, maybe some hyperblack with a polished lip. Hmm might look nice with the new springs. Ahh decisions, decisions..... Anyone have a good pics of a titanium 8 with some nice black/polished lip 18s?
