Get your windows tinted. I have seen a couple cars, a red one, and and a silver one, and it looks so good.

with the $120 youll have left, a strut bar is probably the best way to go

Tinting isn't a bad idea. I recently just got mine tinted and looks pretty tight. My suggestions would be one or two of the following: AEM or InJen CAI intake, strut bar, tint, Short Shifter if you have a 5-speed. Or save your money for a bigger 'upgrade' like rims and tires or exhaust and headers. I'm working on getting a intake and SS and rims and tires. But a also what to lower my car too if I can new rims. I have a LOT of money to save hehe.
