soo, I got some money =)

alite, I have one thousand five hundred Cash Money on me.
I'm thinking about to get a new front bumper and a carbon fiber hood.
I really like C-West Front bumper.. so I searched, I think there is no C-West front bumper for EVO IX but for EVO VIII....
I also want new rims, but they're too expansive.
Anyways, what do u Think, Should I spend on something else is that a good idea?

Currently ( 3"TBE, MBC, Intercooler, Tuned )

Here are some simple suggestions, sometimes the little things make a difference.


Intake

Intercooler piping if you dont already have it.

Fuel pump

A good radar detector (helped me save more $)

O2 Housing (cheap and worth it)

Im assuming you already have a boost gauge, so
Oil Pressure Gauge (could save you a TON of money)

Cams - Make a huge difference

A retune - obviously some of the above will require one



And here are some you may not have considered...

Shifter bushing (give the car a nicer feel in my opinion)

Flat-Spray washer fluid nozzles (RussellM has em), Lots of sand where Im from and the stock ones suck.

Oil Catch can system, you could even make your own cheaply, and theoretically works.

Good Car wash/wax/detailing supplies.

You drive a IX right? Cams aren't really necessary. I agree with the intake and IC piping, fuel pump, o2 housing, and meth if you want along with a re-tune of course. That might break the 2000 dollar mark. You could even get the bumper and hood if you shop. I think the Evo looks good with just a lip, but to each his own. Also consider maybe just getting some coilovers. You can get a good set for around 1500+.
