Question Your favorite <$200 Upgrade?
I poked around and didn't see a thread quite like this.

What are your favorite upgrades that cost $200 or less?

I'll get us started:
OEM Spoiler for my Sport package car, $100 shipped used, I like that wing.
Clear Corners with Amber LEDs, $50 shipped for corners, $30 shipped for lights all for a car with no orange on the front end
Switchblade Key, $50 shipped for a key that includes the remote buttons

Functionally speaking, I would go with adding an iPod adapter and ditching the CDs. Most of that other stuff is just visual fluff.

Bigger 4" exhaust tips.

I can't stand how tiny the stock exhausts look.
