My first my mod was Window Tint 5% all the way around but thats just me. I hate people being able to see in my car. Exhaust is good too but id say intake before exhaust so you can hear that supercharger!

I would say exhaust. it would give you a better sound and more performance than the others. as for tranny/motor mounts. i havent done these yet but from my understanding you should wait till you put down some more power and actually need them.

correct me if im wrong, im also new to this

oh yea forgot about that i debadged my car already. then painting the dash is useless for m. and i dont like the look of tinted tail lights on yellow. but thanks.
