What can $500+ get me?

I just got a gift card from my apartment complex for $500 and I dont plan on saving it What could I do to my car? Things I do want are a new front bumper and a rear spoiler, but i know those will use all of the 500. Suggestions please!

There aren't any new front or rear bumpers out yet, just lip kits. Unless you wanna go with the ebay GT3 bumper.

If you just wanna use the $500 and not put in any extra, I would say get the JWT pop chargers, some overlays, or springs.

That's a good start on an exhaust. That's what I would do.

put just under $300 of your own funds with that for the Tanabe Exhuast. You'll get some good sound, and little pick up. You could afford an intake with the $500, but minimal gains have been seen, and i think as far as modding goes, exhaust is one of the best investments. Coming from Audi, where you spend $400 for no gains but cool carbon fiber, i'll be passing on the intake for the G after the reviews. But JWT seem to be the best if you do go that route.
