for around 100-150 bones and a couple of hours, put some dynamat around the rear sub and then upgrade the 2 tweeters and center channel in the front dash using the infinity speaker upgrade thread in the 3G sound section forum. then just tweak the eq.

makes a huge sound system difference for not much money.

I guess 99% of people on this board are ricers then.

Ahhh the narrow mindedness of youth!

Tint, wheels (you can sometimes make a case), lighting modifications, etc can all be tastefully done.

Second that. iIf you get in on one of Dom's TVandNav2Go group buys and find a cheap (but good) camera, you can do it for $250-$300. I've found mine very useful. Be sure to get the PnP harness.

If you can solder, change the memo and security leds to blue. I used to make em for folks, but it's not that difficult.

3. Replace license plate lights with white LEDs or cold cathode
4. Clear out front headlights
