Default things to do on a small budget.

i absolutely love when i accomplish installing something new on my car; its the best feeling. i would love to do bigger and better things but unfortunately i am limited with my budget considering that i am a broke college student hahaha.

i wanted to start this thread in order for people, like myself, to find new and interesting installs that others have done on a limited budget. these can be the simplest to hard as hell as long as they are relatively inexpensive.

on with the ideas.

There have been about a million of these "cheap mod" threads started. And none of them ended well.

Are you sure you searched? I found 8 threads in about 5 seconds, and I know there are plenty more out there if you search too.

I don't know why people buy expensive cars and then look to mod it with a small budget.

Well, with all of the many answers that you offered to his simple question, he should be good to go and shouldn't even bother reading the rest of what you call bashing. I see some good advice.


Did you do any research on how much it cost to modify a 350Z before you picked it out? Me personally, I would rather enjoy a stock Z than put a bunch of cheap mods on it. It is good advice to sell it as it sucks to be broke.

How much does a way worths?

OP, how much do you have to spend? I'll try to help as I am always on a budget, but I have taste, common sense, and an ultimate plan for my car, so I don't waste money.


I have an Unorthodox Racing lightweight pulley set for $200 shipped if you want them. PM me if interested.
