What would you do? Currently I have around 300 dollars saved up for the max and was wondering what you guys would do. I can either by a stillen y pipe or i can install and paint the front lip I have in my garage and buy some sprints to drop the car. Appearance and Performance are both important to me. AHH i wish i had more money.

Re: Looks

The lip won't look that great unless if the car is lowered IMO.

The reason I want the stillen y pipe is that I've heard so much great stuff about it, but if i dont get this lip on, i feel like im wasting money or something. ARGH i dunno. Any of you know where I can get the stillen Y pipe for cheap? cheapest price i found was $349.

I would bring the Front Lip down to my Local paint shop and have them paint it for about $50-75 then I would set aside a half hour to install the lip myself. Next I would think about getting some Sprint Springs but if I could not afford shocks to I would not buy them, I would instead just save up and buy the shocks and springs and install them myself. So all in all you need about $450-$500 and your golden.
