paying off the debt i've aquired from my recent accident... but if I have it paid off in time before I get my tax refunds, I'd like to put in a little nicer of a system... I'm just afraid I'll lose steering wheel functionality though lol..

I doubt I'll get back more than 150$ since I only work part time while in college. I'll probably put it towards some speakers and a new Alpine HU, or those dual beam projectors .. assuming they are ever created.

Dyam, soonerfan. You must be a happy man. I would say save half. You can still get a decent amount of mods with $3000.
I need to fix this big crack in my windshield. Hopefully, I can afford some rims soon.
