Don't get NOS, if you want engine mods do the basics first, intake, exhaust etc..

Its up to you, if your willing to risk your engine, go nuts, but very few people have had any success with nitrous.

it will mess up the engine, unless you've got stronger pistons and rods, and possibly even block, our engines are weak, that's all there is too it

If you want more power just get more mods, do you have a bored TB, intake manifold, header etc.? You could always get some suspension mods if you want the car to handle better. If your going purely for looks, get the hood, its all a matter of figuring out what you want, a faster car or a car that simply looks fast.

If it is between the two go with the hood. But if it were up to me I'd put that 500 bucks toward something for the proformance of the car. Suspension mods...
