200 bucks to blow

I'll be getting $200 soon so obviously I've been spending any spare time cruising through the FAQ's and running through www.custommaxima.com but I just can't seem to figure out what the best use of $200 would be for my max. I haven't upgraded anything in the engine at all. In fact, the only things I have on it are some 15" ADR rims and a decent stereo system w/o subs. What would any of you guys do if you had a stock max and only 200 bucks in your pocket to put into it? Cause I'm totally lost. I was leaning towards a Pacesetter cat-back but the prices have gone up to nearly $250 instead of 190 like it used to be. I appreciate you're guys' help because like I said I'm totally lost.

Y-Pipe or tint. Depends on what you want the Max to be.

U need to specify wat ur mod preference is. Y-pipe for performance, eibach springs for suspension, and i would have to say the diamond cut clear corners in the front for looks. I just cant stand the ugly orange lenses

What's an FSTB and RSB? Can those things be bought at www.custommaxima.com or are they somewhere else?

Front Strut Tower Bar and Rear Sway Bar. Custommaxima has them and you can find them anywhere.

If I were you...I'd save it for gas

Yeah, it does depend on your preference. Whether or not you want show or go...

If go, get an intake or ypipe. You have till tomorrow to call for a ypipe. The GD closes tomorrow. Just look in the GD forum.

If show, go with ALTEZZAS... They're freakin sweet man!

No my bad DO NOT RICE YOUR MAX!!!

Go with some DC clears, or maybe tint or dash kit. DC clears would be first on my list. Actually, come to think of it, it was first on my list cause it was my first mod! LOL

Have fun!
