Christmas Mods!

i cant think of what i want for christmas this year. my parents will usually spend maybe like 200-250$ total. i know there isnt much i could get in that price range, but im searching for some ideas.

i was thinkin some custom floor mats.

how bout a strut bar or something?

anything worth getting? i plan on buying the GMPP performance exhaust on my own.

Someone's got some bitter feelings lingering about that test tomorrow.

Seriously, though, a strut bar wouldn't be bad at all. Cheap decent mod. Hell, tell your parents to send one my way while they're at it!

good thing about that 'test' is that it is at 1:30 PM...my first class is at 9:30 AM...goes to 10:20 and then im skipping my second class that is from 11:30-12:20 and studying all the way to like...1:25 PM...and i will still get like a 30. And i REALLY DO THINK I understand the material, too.

If you do lots of driving you may also want to ask for a nav system. I originally asked my GF for a short throw shifter, but uhh... her mom suggested maybe getting my a gps nav for my car.

I have the J-body strut bar, i think is better quality that the DC. The welds look a lot nicer than pictued. http://www.jbodyperformance.com/new/...catName=JP0906

the jbody looks almost identical to the dc except for its square tubing instead of rounded for the bar. I personally have the DC and love it. I would suggest going with a strut bar, some custom floor mats, and some nite shades tint spray for the tails. That would eat up the money lol. Unfortunately I have done most of the cheap mods and my gf wants to know what i want i might push for the injen intake but that would probably be all that i would get. However my bday is also in dec so maybe i can put them together and get a CF SS style hood
