Default What should I get?

OK I know this is an annoying question, but I've got about $500 saved up. (which is a miracle for me to do) So what shoud I get with it? I've been thinking about a CF hood, maybe some CF mirrors, but I could also put it against the principle on my car. What are some good upgrades for around 500? Exterior, Under the hood, suspension, anything but interior. Thanks.

That was another mod I was looking at maybe CF, maybe NFR. I'm not to sure which way I want to go just yet. I'd like to try the track scene, but it's not paid off yet, and the closest track is in TMR. I'm also still trying to decide whether I want to stay NA or go with a SC. decisions, decisions.

I would say if you are strapped for cash, stay away from the SC. Ask Bobby
If you don't want to do a full exhaust, get a test pipe. Gives the car a nice sound. So does the K&N FIPK

save your money and join us at MSR ranch in Texas during Sept. for the HPDE event by TheDriversEdge. $500 should cover the weekend.

Actually, if you want to add some cool sounds, and rejuvenate the enthusiasm, I agree with mike (MDS2kap1), get the K&N FIPK intake (no hydrolock worry)... Talk about a deep grumble in your engine bay... I think all of us that have it: Myself, Agent.marshall, globallyoff, all love it.
Or the coming to do the drivers edge with us would be cool too!
