an oem bumper from TR is like 75 tops, shit you might be able to get one with your color.

Dont be a fag and buy that other shit.

Also, a tokico/H&R springs set up will cost you 250-350 depending on where you buy it.

Hell i bought my H&R sports off here for $25.

As for the wheels, just paint the ones you have now.

do not get purple HIDs. I'll ban you for extreme homo.

I think you should save money, repaint front bumper, leave as is, save money some more, look for new job that pays more.

LOGIC? You seriously want to invoke logic in a conversation about fake hijackings, missiles hitting the pentagon, and bombs planted throughout the world trade center? I thought it was a given that logic was checked at the door when entering one of these threads.

If you absolutely wanted to mod something, I guess i'd probably get wheels. BUT, i'd say get your stock front bumper repainted.

Of just don't, enjoy having high MPG, and save your money.

You can have it all, you just need to plan well.

1. Buy the bumper. Install it unpainted to save some money. An unpainted body kit is better than nothing.

2. Go to autozone and buy purple headlight bulbs, looks like HID's and costs less. IF you always keep your high beams on people will think they are HID's, and you will see more of the road. If autozone doesn't have purple bulbs, just spray paint the headlight housing with a little purple.

3. Don't buy lowering springs, just cut a few coils off of yours.

4. Make a deal with your friend and put the wheels on lay away. When you have enough money you can put nice rims on the rear wheels and leave steelies up front. This is good for drag racing ( I know cause I watched all teh fast adn the furius movies at least three times each). WHen you have saved up your money you can put the front wheels on and maybe even buy a 5 inch exhaust tip at pepboys.

apparently you're not even going to keep for much longer.

Save up the cash, throw it into an account or something and forget about it. Save it for a rainy day. Or at least new wheels on your Eclipse that you're apparently getting in less than 4 months.
