Alright guys, I kinda stole this idea from a local DSM board, but I have changed things around a bit.

Ok, every year during Christmas, I end up spending hundreds on friends and family. Yes, I love giving to others, but it kinda sucks, because it seems like the things I want/need always get put on hold for a couple months. So for the last couple years, I have tried really hard to stash an extra hundred bucks or so away to buy something for myself, because it seems like nobody else ever buys me anything cool that I actually enjoy. (Well besides this year I think, I'm trying to con my mom into buying me some Boston Acustics speakers for my car for my 21st birthday/Christmas).

Anyways, seeing as we are all car geeks, I am going to go out on a limb and say that your gift to yourself will probably be car related. What do you want it to be? Be creative here, you only have a couple hundred bucks max to spend. So lets hear it.

Besides speakers, I am going to say mine is going to be new tires for the Integra. Both sets I have are at like 25% tread, and I am definetly going to need some new ones. Probably nothing too fancy, but I get tires at crazy cheap prices and can probably pick up a decent full set for $350.

I'm torn between meth injection or romulator setup. Romulator costs much less and is a great feature but meth would add so much more power.

Hmm. For $300 I could get my heads cleaned and gone over and I could buy a set of rims+tires off of a guy.

Now I just gotta come up with $300... :-?

What I really want is a new home and a well paying job, but back to reality. I would settle for getting all 3 of my cars running well and parts installed instead of sitting on the self. I am selfish so I go out an buy what I really want when I can.

it's doable. I saw a pic on the Suzuki Swift board of a 1.0L Metro with a plow on it.
