Too much $$ Ideas for what to do

OK guys i have over a 1,000 bucks saved up. I was going to use it to buy a body kit for my cobalt but sadly my parents wont let me do that until the car is paid off in 2 years. (im only 16) I already replaced all of my audio. New head unit speakers subs etc. So what should i do with all this money i have saved?
New Headlights tail lights etc etc

THANKS FOR THE HELP!

It helps if you let us know what car you have and If you have any mods thus far.

Smart choice>> Put it towards paying off the car.

Tuner choice>> Intake, rims, exhaust, etc.

Ricer choice>> Bodykit, wing, neons

my thoughts exactly.

you should give the 1k to your parents

what kind of car is it? if its an ss id just work on paying it off and stick some money away for college or put it into another hobby...

just my $0.02 vs your $1,000 I suppose

If you're looking for appearance, get a decent set of rims. I have black on black. It looks sweet dude. smoked tail lights, window tint. Even a brow(windshield visor). You have no clue how much a brow does for your car. I personally will probably never get my car lowered or get a body kit. I live in an area with MANY hills. Put i would consider it if I was living in LA. or some other flatened area. For performance CAI/SRI, catback exhaust (www.mandrelexhaustsystems.com), downpipe, headers. What ever you want.
