    Hi,

    To all those people out there with tight budgets, you will probably know where im coming from. I wanna do my car up for about 2 grand. Thats all I got. I wanna prove to my mates that its possible. My list of doing is:

    *17 inch wheels
    *lower car 1 1/4 inch. Just the springs.
    *Sports Exhaust
    *Tinted windows
    *New deck
    *Colour code the grey plastic under the doors

    Thats it!

    Do you think its possible?

    yeah like Booya said, second hand rims and a decent second hand deck.

    lowering around $300
    exhaust about $150
    tints around $200
    color coding around $100
    total for these mods ------
    $750 roughly

    leaves you $1250

    $1000 second hand wheels & tyres
    $250 pioneer Kenwood clarion head decks.

    Good Luck.

    reading this makes me realise i was pretty lucky with my TE.

    17 inch wheels and tyres - $960 2nd hand
    exhaust (straight thru muffler + nice tip) - $175

    tints - came with car
    colour coding - came with car
    head unit (double DIN kenwood CD/MD) - came with car
    soundstream sub and amp - given to me by my brother cos it cant fit in his ute now

    now all i need is lowering
    manual TE 3.0 dead

    *17 inch wheels
    You'll have to go 2nd hand and that could cost anything

    *lower car 1 1/4 inch. Just the springs.
    Not exactly sure...but about $3-400

    *Sports Exhaust
    $200

    *Tinted windows
    up to $200

    *New deck
    You can pick up entry level sony xplod ones for about 150, or entry level pioneer ones for about $200

    *Colour code the grey plastic under the doors
    colour coding was going to cost me 400 for the entire car..so I'd say about $100 for those parts

    That is a VERY VERY tight budget...but it could be done.

    The only problem I forsee is that by going 2nd hand with rims, you're severly limiting what styles you can choose from...quite possibly there might not be anything you like. But that would be good in a way as you can save up more for when you do see some you like!

    leave the rims till last so if you have more than you thought you can have a look around for some decent rims. but i think dumping it on its ass is the best thing to do with something like vrx rims, it should look awsome.
