new steering wheel bit more colour code the dash a bit more to match your bits youve done allready. get some sxi/sport seatsfrom a scrappy. new grill. maybe change wing mirrors to something a bit smaller? performance headlight bulbs. drill your airbox if havent allready

do all the free/very cheap things first - remove all badges and side strips, bee sting, colour code handles and arches etc while your saving for alloys, lowering and exhaust!! an alarm is also a good idea fairly early on as every mod you do to your car makes it more desireable to "borrow"!! Looks a nice motor tho mate
