Hookers and blow.

Buy some sound deadening, an amp, speakers, and head unit.

Spinner hub caps and a steering wheel cover. Maybe some underglow if you got any dough left over..

Get your pipes: intake, header exhaust.

Or go stereo route- deck, amp, speakers, sub.

Depends on your hand size, but my top choices are the Browning Hi-Power, CZ-75, and SIG P226.

word. may think of getting fresh new carpet if you're gonna rip it up to install the brown bread anyway. i spent just under 400 bux on my system in total and it sounds better than most systems i've heard. i just walked into circuit city and made the clerk find me the parts with the best signal/noise ratio. it's an overlooked spec by many people reluctantly dropping half a g on aural pleasures
