Springs/Sway Bars or Exhaust or Grill & Gauges
I'm having a hard choice choosing between the three...Hotchkis Springs and Sway Bars, a $300 exhaust like the Tanabe or Tsudo N1, or Fig Gloss Black Grilles and Enzo style(tach in middle) gauges.
Each will be $300-$400...what would you get first? My favorite mod is my short shifter followed by my HIDs if that tells you anything about what I like. I don't race, the goal for my tC is just to be fun.
P.S. I'm open to other $300ish suggestions

Here's what each choice will get you in my view:
1. Hotchkis Springs and Sways:
-Better appearance with the drop, and much better handling.
2. Exhaust:
-Nice sound, not much performance, still stock lookingish.
3. FIG grill, and Gauges:
-Grill in my opinion is a must, but gauges? What for? Volt meter and A/F mixture? Thats a rice mod.
If i were you, I would get the springs, sway, AND grill all at once.

So it seems like suspension is the overwhelming majority...and what I was leaning towards as well. Thanks all
lol no, not side gauges..that is ricey as hell. I was interested in the LEDmod gauges where he swapped the speedometer and tachometer positions.
