so you wanna do something appearance wise? i say go with some nice rims...

also a great mod for the MTs are the AFE short shifter, it really adds the "sport" of the car...completely changes the feel of the shifts

get the ings 2 kit and some drop -- it would look nice in green i think since that kit looks sort of euro and the green is sort of british racing green.
