There's some altezza grilles on ebay between 30-40.

I say get new tires, or suspension mods...unless you do something major (ie turbo or swap) N/A engine mods seem pointless on a d17

BTW, if you get the altezza grille, look into getting a sedan radiator cover as well if you do'nt already have a sedan.
