Default 200 bucks to spend

birthday/anniversary with the gf is coming up...which means she will be buying me some cool presents...and she finally agreed to buy me some car parts...now question is...what should i get...just give me some ideas in the 200ish range...

if its a little more i can always pay the difference if necessary...but i just cant think of any good ideas...any suggestions?

im open to all suggestions...i have no areas that i can think about, although maybe strut bars to improve the suspension for auto cross or something...but im not too sure right now

How about some fogs, or euro ellipsoid headlights?

Change out all your fluids , get a new O2 sensor, new sparkplugs. Best 200 bucks spent ever..... IMO

Maintenance over mods.
But I'd opt for a crossbrace.

Harness bar and harnesses? Or you could paint your rims black.

Scratch the cross-brace. I didn't read the signature.
Contrary to popular belief, a harness bar alone is not good for harnesses.
And a set of Schroths are gonna be more than $200.00.

Yeah I know they suck but they are cheap. I would get one so I could have harnesses until I got a cage.

yeah i was thinking the angel eye headlights might be an option too...the depos that everyone gets off ebay are around 300 so i could easily throw in 100 bucks to get them

and i just changed the o2 sensor last summer and fluids are pretty fresh...im thinking either the angel eyes or the strut bars...but i seem to remember reading that strut bars dont do a whole lot...and angel eyes look cool as hell

The euro headlights do rock! Add some HID down the road for full effect.
