Easy upgrade question

A while back I read over a thread that had some simple upgrades. It had some things to do to your car that are real simple and cost little or nothing. I remember one of them was to paint the washer nozzles, and as an example another would be to clear your headlights.

Anyway since I can't find the original post, can you guys list up some things similar to the above? (I spent an hour last night searching for it)

Thanks
Cube

There's lot's of stuff to do

You can remove your mudflaps (looks cooler)
bypass coolant lines @ TB (saw it in a DIY thread)
unbolt your muffler and throw it in the shed (I run 2" straight pipe instead)
check all those DIY threads i'm sure there are more

Just wondering how do those straight pipes sound coming out of a 4 banger?

Negative, I don't want my car sounding like a lawn mower.

No kidding. A straight pipe on an i4 labels you as incompetent to the casual observer, no matter what the car. 100+ dB at 2000 RPM is not cool by any stretch of the imagination.
