Cheap Evo parts to buy?

I was wondering, Christmas will be here soon... what kind of cheap parts are out there costing no more than 200 or 300 dollars? I was thinking valve covers, oil caps, strut braces, things of that nature. I'm saving for a bigger turbo and built motor, but sadly that'll be a while from now. What kind of little dress up parts are out there for me? Nobody buys 1000 dollar Christmas gifts.
Sorry if this is a repost, it's kind of hard to search for this stuff

Detailing stuff is always good. Intake, MBC...there are tons of little dress up things to get in that range. Just check out some vendor websites.

Ok, sounds good. I already have intake, EBC, TBE, fp, so I'm looking more for dress up pieces because the basic bolt ons are there for me. I'll look into some CF stuff just for the hell of it.
Definitely getting the dragon seat covers

I could easily spend $200-300 on detailing crap alone.

Mitchubishi is not a dealership. He's a member on these forums.

If you're short on money pretty much all the time, I'd buy maintenance parts rather than aesthetic stuff, i.e., fluids, filters, pads, tires. These parts alone can easily consume your limit and they are necessary for you to keep driving your Evo safely and for a long time.

Agreed, always having extra fuilds around is a wise choice.
