That's it? That's the extent of this fight? Lame! I miss the old days on this forum. I need to start with someone. Where's ECF? I heard ECH was looking to kick his ass.

Having a tight budget means my options aren't at the plenty. So I've decided to either aim to enhance performance or appearance or a little bit of both.

Performance:
1. Sprint Booster
2. Air filter
3. Exhaust

Appearance:
1. M-tech kit or ACS lip
2. Smoked taillights
3. Mirrors
4. Wheels

Right now I'm planning on tinting, getting a umnitza front bumper, smoked taillights and possible air filer. In your opinion what do you think is the best road to take. This is obviously a big investment so I wanna make the right choices.

Thanks for the help
With a limited budget, I'd do the little stuff 1st.

Here is a combo of performance and look
1. Black Grills
2. Euro Stickers
3. Tint
4. RPI Scoop
5. Smoked Taillights (maybe)
6. Sprint Booster / Umnitza front
7. Wheels
8. Exhaust
9. M5 Mirrors

noo get appearance, with all that money to performance you wont even get 10hp, and even with 10hp it wont even make much of a difference. appearance will definitely make a difference. thats just my opinion.
