What would you do with $500?

Just got some birthday money, and was curious as to what you guys would do with $500?
I was thinking of an m3 spoiler, tint, and something to get rid of the ambers... What do you think?

Get rid of the amber for sure. After that it's a toss up btw tints, M3 spoiler, aero lip, blacked out grills.... Good luck with tough decisions!

What are my options to get rid of the amber? And, what about getting blacklines? Although, I like the euro blacklines better that are clear, where can i find oem clearlines?

I would start with exterior mods first unless you want a sleeper then get a tune.

Kidney grills, a lip, tints, smoked tails, etc. Would prob have the most impact aesthetically on your car besides rims but that wouldn't fit your 500$ budget.

.......... OP, put the money where it's most likely to benefit you/the car the most. By the time you start on the cosmetic stuff there will be new products all over again.
