Hotchkis Front and Rear Hollow Sway Bars and front tie strut bar, Tein Basic Coilovers, K&N Typhoon Intake Air( or AEM), Perrin Light Weight Crank Pulley, TWM Short Shifter, DC Sports 4-1 One Piece Header, DC SPORTS Single Canister System Exhaust Exhaust, BBIST Carbon Fiber Hood, JL audio or Kenwood or Alpine sound systems, and finally rims of really any choice.
If you did this I might even trade in my tc for an already suped up ride...haha j/k but this will still be awesome.

That was my thought. My painter quoted me $2200 to spray my s-10 with stripes doing no body work. (all House of Colours ofcorse)

It's all about appearance for that price, as it will be difficult to turn it into a tire scorcher. . . at least at that price range, if any. I would do a body kit. . . maybe a Kenstyle knock off. There isn't a whole lot to paint, so it shouldn't cost much. And because you are with a dealer, you should be getting work done at a discount. Secondly, the wheels you should be able to attain at or near cost. . . maybe the Enkei's that are availabe with the RS1.0. Finally, I would do a nice set of stickers/graphics to get attention. If this is for a dealer, it is about getting attention (advertising) to get sales. Make it flashy, but tasteful. Performance and audio can wait. But if you want to enjoy the car as well, you may consider a more balanced approach.

With what I listed you could do for easily 4k with some left over but you can expect to have a body kit, sound system, and performance upgrades for under 4k with out sacrificing quality.

Where are you located ? I fabricate Stainless steel parts for all Scions. These parts are made from mirror polished stainless. Parts like the underhood cover, pillars, covers for the engine compartment the wiper cowl, door sills. Just about anything you may want. And since i'm the fabricator if I haven't already made it, then with a little time I can make a one off piece for ya. And believe me I won't break your budget. I would rather have the parts seen than rape anyone in pricing... Call the shop with any questions .. Thanks,
