Default $150.00 GIFT FOR MY Z? Suggestions

So this is the deal, I am getting a gift from my gf and the budget is $150. I already know I want it to go towards my Z. Besides the tint I just put on, it is a completely stock white 06 touring, I just got it in Feb so I haven't had the $ to make any mods yet. What should I ask for? As of now I am thinking about getting the roof wrapped in mat black vinyl OR heads and tails professionally smoked, 1 part black, 2 parts clear coat. I think that would look clean on the white. I also thought about a JWT pop charger but thats iffy bc I would rather have cosmetics first, just to get away from the stock look. Any other suggestions that would fit in that $150. price range?

cosmetics first? hmm, you could get that roof wrapped for cheaper than 150, then use that extra money for a shorty antenna. DOn't get the heads smoked. Maybe get some tint for the rear reflectors.

Go out to the nearest Dodge dealership and buy one for an Avenger. Just saw you're in Houston, I got mine from the Dodge dealership on 610 South and it was <$5.00

Spend the rest on a nice shift ****...
