Total cost for everything I did on my car is as follows:

Wheels: $5.00 (paint) 100.00 a wheel

Exhaust: $100.00 +/-

Taillights: $6.00 (paint)

Si Emblem: $5.00 (was an SiR emblem, cut off R with razor blade, looks like an OEM one, not jagged either)

Bomz Intake: $30.00

Not planning on any wings, stickers, or any ricey things.

BTW I'm only 15 so this is all I can really do, DIY stuff...

Si and DOHC VTEC emblems? And you've got a D16 in there? Better put the flame suit on.

The wheels do look badass though. :goodjob:
