Default Good gifts for S2k owner....

So I'm really trying to get my boyfriend a good gift for his birthday. He has a boosted S2K, and I know I pretty much cant go wrong getting him something for his car. I just dont know where to start. Here's some insight. I have 3 days to get him something and $1,000 to spend....What should I get? I know this is very general since you have no idea what kind he has, what all he has done to it, etc. but any ideas?? Feel free to ask more questions. I'll try my best to answer them. Thanks!

That's hard to answer since we don't know what all he already has. I take it he uses this site also? If so, what's his name on here because maybe his mods will be in his sig.

How about a home made gift certificate offering to pay expenses, (gas/hotel/dinners out), up to $1000 for a long weekend driving trip in the car? The two of you get to enjoy his passion for the car, and get a memorable trip out of it.

I thought of that. But we also have a 1 year old. So thats a lot more work than it seems to most people. I'd rather just spend the money on something that he will really appreciate for his car. And something he wouldnt just go out and buy for himself....

Hmm thats a good idea. We do have those. He is going to an autocross on his actual bday though...too much time at the track?

$1000 for a person you're dating...wow...hope you marry the guy! If it were me I would get the entire front end clear-bra'd, that's about $550 right there. Then a case of Amsoil synthetic and a few OEM oil filters would be a nice "stocking stuffer"
