Audi B7 (2006) A4

maybe you have better than i do.

My friend has a 2006 Audi A4 2.0T, and it's his birthday, and i was thinking about getting something for his car.

some things i was considering was

Lip spoiler
Fog light bulb (like xenonmatch style)
Or HID 6000K bulb.

price i'm thinking about is max ~160. (sorry i'm still a poor college student)

He loves his ride, but he's not so into car tuning
He hopes to get those S-line packages, but no money.

and to be honest, i don't know how Audi A4 owners start tuning their cars.
also, his car is silver, and i feel like if i get a carbon fiber A4 lip spolier (which seems popular among A4 owners), it will look ackward without any body kit.

any comments?
thanks

you're a good friend, heh. i'd be lucky if my buddies got me an air freshener. anyways, the easiest thing would probably just to get the HID or fog lights. easy mods and they really make a difference.

My only piece of advise is to avoid exterior modifications (i.e lip spoiler). While its a great idea, it is his car and he may not like the look of the lip spoiler on the car (stranger things have happened)...

I think the 6000k bulb is a great idea but I'm not too sure if they can be found for ~$160.00...

Smoked Tails. They're well within your $160 budget. Everything else is going to break the bank. Beer's nice too.
