One of my first mods was a Visual Garage Shark Fin antenna, I've had them on other cars and really like the look. I've also switched out all bulbs for LEDs and switched my fogs with a slim HID kit.
Can you link me where you got your led bulbs and fog hid kit if you dont mind? Also have you had any bulbs go out on you or had any issues? Ive been seeing some evo owners have LED bulbs burn out prematurely.
like everyone else says start with the small little things that some times and make the biggest difference in the look of the car but deffinitly do window tint, exhaust, intake, wheels, and springs and maybe drilled and slotted rotors and new brake pads b/c the oem ones leave alotta dust on your wheels . on the interior i ordered an arm rest cover and shift boot from red line goods im still waiting on it so ill try and post pics up when i install them but i got black suede with dark red stiching. also on the interior i took the door trim and dash trim and wrapped them in carbon fiber vinyel cuz im to cheap to buy the real carbon fiber but just that alone made a huge differance in the car
I've had ddmtuning.com kits for my cars but this time I went ebay to save $30 or so.. I'm very happy with the kit. I bought a 5k color but its a little whiter than the stock HIDs so I'd suggest 3k or 4k if you're trying to really match.

What's in my mind:
- Huper Optik tint
- AMS cold air intake
- Custom tune with Tactrix Openport 2.0 w/ TephraXMod
- DVD in motion
- Tanabe Revel VLS boost, oil pressure, EGT gauges
- Cusco/Eibach sway bars
- Michelin PSS tires

For those suggesting or posting mods such as Exhaust, intake, tune, suspension etc.
This thread is for small/inexpensive mods. The little things that can make a difference in the appearance, look, and feel of the car. Anything under about 300 bucks. The example i posted in the very first post is what we are talking about. I guess you could squeeze a test pipe or intake in but we arent talking about cat backs, intercoolers etc.
Those T1R mirror inserts look like a great mod, i might have to try those. The Evo stock side mirrors blow and i cant see much in them lol.

I purchased LED interior lights, Titanium Shift knob, Titanium strut bar bolts and some engine washer/bolt dress up kit, Blitz radiator cap and some titanium license plate bolts. I like the minor things that can set your car apart from all the others. All of the purchases were anywhere from 20-90 dollars.
