Most expensive: Coil overs at $1850 plus labor.

Least expensive: Sway bars at $575 with labor. If I ever do the back up camera it will be the cheapest.

Yes! Got an engineering internship for the summer so I (will) have money to spend on mods. Found an awesome deal on this one so I had to jump on it. Next, I have to replace front tires with all seasons (for winter driving) and I may need to replace my brake rotors too.

I'm going to the drag strip for the last time while still stock hopefully this Friday night. I will definitely be heading back out there after I get the exhaust. Don't think I will beat my old time though because of the summer heat.
