I dont have all the money in the world and at (soon to be) 18 i already have a $384 monthly payment. I know i want to tint my windows, but i want to get some crome details on the exterior and a touch screen navigator. which should i get first? and if chrome, should i get the window trim... side mirrors...what?

Window tint, suspension (drop), rims and exhaust are always a good start.

chrome trim??? tint is good. wheels, body kit, hood, lowering it.. headers, whole tune up..

True. i think i'll start with rims the factory ones i have are ugly :/
i'm not too sure i want to mess with the supension because i just transfered from an SUV to a car so i dont wanna go any lower. i'll wait on the exhaust, i dont think im too interested in that.

I've seen chrome outlining the side windows, and thats what i meant.

Silverstar ultra headlights and/or fogs. K&N drop in filter (40 bucks or so) and intake resonator delete (free) These are a few of the things i did when i first got my car and i had a tight budget

I still have a $350 dollar payment, I was lucky to even get an exhaust and windows tinted; and that about all I want to do since all my money goes to hobbie collecting. [hihi]

I would put beater sports wheels over chrome wheels anyday.

Chrome is for Crown Victoria's not Focus![thankyou]

well, i think you should go tinting first, then exhaust system, and then wheels, well that what i did on my car.

tint windows first cause it make look your car bit better.

Thanks everyone. Really helpful tips and opinions. I wont get too carried away with the chrome because my car IS silver, and it may end up like a wash out. I think if i did put any chrome on it'd be handles and thats it. I wanna look into rims but i dont even know whats a good brand and how much they run. Will that be more expensive than an exhaust system??
