Talking Need Help making decision on buying parts.

Hi guys. I left my rx-8 in LA, I'm shipping my 8 to Mongolia, where I live. Before I do, I would like to add some modifications for the amount in total of 3600$.
Mine is automatic, so I can't purchase turbo, etc.
What I am interested in are: RB Revi intake 335$, Duct 135$, Midpipe, Exhaust 655$, Ac and Oil Cooler Screens for 97$, and MS bodykits including the spoiler. I have small scratches and little dent on the left back fender of my car which I am planing to have it fixed, and then custom painted for the amount of 1400$. My budget was 5G. So I'm down to 3.6.
What would you guys suggest?
Are the choices I am making good for the quality, because in Mongolia, we don't have any legitimate mazda service? If you have purchased these parts or would like to give me more ideas? Or maybe if you have the parts for sale please post your comments fast. I am going to do the purchasing probably beginning of next week.

Mine is 05, Pearl White, Automatic, 30K miles on it.

thanks

CB

You wont find a good mazdaspeed body kit for cheap. You would have to go with a replica kit which will probably have terrible fitment. Either way you would be spending alot of money on the body kit.

If your looking for reliability, I would get the mazdaspeed kit, a nice tint, and a small subwoolfer.

You can also get something like a big brake kit and neons.

Thanks guys for your feedbacks! The amount I'm planing to spend on the MS kits are 2600$. Are they enough for good Mazda body kits or? I just got an extra 1000 since last time so maybe it might be enough for the kits with extra 1000+2600=3600. Are the Pulleys real big difference for the car reliability?

Please keep posting your comments guys its really big help for me.
