I'm stuck for cash at the moment as I have many bills and it's my girlfriend's birthday soon.
Are there any cheap mods I can do to my car?
I've already de-badged and de-rubstripped before anybody suggests but thanks anyway.

smoke rear lights, tint your windows (buy film and apply yourself!), go down scrap yard and find yourself some vectra chrome handles or colour coded outside handles, drill airbox.

On side of car, the plastic/rubber bit that runs along the car, designed to prevent (as much as possible) things like carpark dings etc

I don't want to de-wiper because it's going to leave a small hole to my boot where...knowing this area someone will put a match threw or something pathetic like that.
I've painted my drums...can do my calipers I guess, havn't got alloys but it's something to do
I have pre-97 bumpers so I can't take the badge off the bumper without applying some filler to the plastics.
