I have £400 to spend...

I have £400 to spend on my car which I have saved aside for it and I will be able to start spending next month. What do you think I should spend it on?

Ive got alloys i'm happy with, my tyres are good, i've got skirts, spoiler, rear light covers, induction kit.

Any suggestions???

Re: I have £400 to spend...

Suspension kit would be good, handling is ten times better IMO after getting rid of the standard stuff.

You got a zorst?

Have you sorted the security yet before buying mods?

The first mod to any car should be suspension.
