low cost mods?

Ok, I have done a number of mods to my car (see sig). Im on a pretty tight budget so I want some cost effective, bang for the buck kinda ideas. Doesn't matter if the mod is performance or cosmetic, interior or exterior.

What are the best mods for

1) Under $100.00

2) $100.00 - 250.00

For performance, upper and lower control arms aren't much over $100 these days. Those will help you plant better when you launch.

Cosmetically, I've done the following in your price range:
  • MGW Door Lock *****, $20
  • Moleskin window trim replacements, $16
  • Silver Horse Racing Billet Aluminum Door Handles $120
  • Flameball Shift ****, $89
  • Redline Goods Leather Shift Boot, E-Brake Boot, and Armrest Cover, $116
  • Electrochromic HomeLink Rearview Mirror with Temperature and Compass, $289 (close enough)
  • FRPP Hood Pins, $39
  • GT500 Splitter, $65
  • Homemade Shorty Antenna, free
  • 3D Carbon Head Light Splitters, painted G5 Alloy, $148
  • Four Infinity Kappa 682.7CF 6x8 Speakers, $160
  • Lots of Dynamat, $100ish

I think one of the best 'value' mods is the grabberpony.com shift ****. Where else can you get a custom piece of that quality for that price?!
