Default Got $7500 to spend

Okay guys, my girl is giving me $7500 to spend on my car! (I love her!) keep in mind that I have already spent $10,000 on the car already just for Volk rims and Greddy TT. Now I have another $7500. What should I get? here is my wishlist that I want to get. it has to be cheapest to highest price though:

Tint : $300
Alarm : $600
Injen Exhaust : $900
Tein Flex w/ EFDC : $2000
Greddy add-on bodykit or Vizage bodykit : $2000
Pioneer AVIC-N1 : $1500

These are just rough estimates. My girl told me to estimate the highest possible. if you guys got other suggestions in what to get let me know soon please. I need some suggestions! Thanks, Tim!

Does your girl have a sister? Lucky you. That looks like a pretty good list to me.

You got your tint for $60, it's at least $180 up here.

I dont think there is any quality tint shop under 150. I dont mind paying extra for a better quality. I am not plannin to go cheap so I wouldnt mind. But anyways guys, is there anything else I didnt put on my list that should be a must?

Um my brothers friend got his tints for his 99 Maxima at the same place. 5 years ago...no fading, no peeling, no bubbles...My brother has had his tints for 2 1/2 years, no problem. Only thing cheap about the tints is the price.

With all that power you will have, I would get coilovers, sways, and a F&R BBK. You will probably even have some money left over for that little stuff (alarm, tint, etc)

How much do you guys think it will cost to do my internals? I think I need to beef up my internals too I think since I just got my Greddy TT. And where can I get some cheap internal parts? Any vendors out there? Give me some prices please!

first of all , get an aps motorsports high capacity oil pan(it wont hit the ground like the spacer i have from jwt) then get a nismo thermostat, then get a high capacity radiator, like a pewer industires or a koyo, then do the samco pipes and nismo radiator cap for fun, and then get the aebs stroker kit ah ah ah ah ah and save for suspension later hehe, seriously if you have spent 10 grand already, make sure its protected by building it an cooling it. suspension wears out anywyas just keep your vdc on untill you have 2 grand for suspension. ooh and nismo oil pump all on z1auto.com,
