Its not much, and I'm too broke to do much else, but I'm slowly saving for that big day when I can do some nice stuff to it.

Hate the rims, but the car needs a drop and it will at least look better.

Consider painting the side moldings along with the lower valances.

I would consider also getting tint, that makes a car looks 100% better in my opinion.

Those look 16's to me. It would look a lot better when you lower it. Good luck with the car bro.

Yeah I want to do all of those but I'm just too broke right now...college is too expensive....

I'm gonna do the side moldings as soon as I have time, maybe in the next couple weeks I think. I really really want tint, but don't have the 150+ bones for it right now, plus I'm taking the car up to Michigan in a month so I can't really use the "the sun is so bright and will ruin the car" excuse to try to get my dad to pay for it...oh well, maybe in a couple months. And I dream of dropping the car, but again, money is the factor...I would love to put a small drop (1.75" max on it) with some springs on stock shocks, but I'm just dreading that day when my stock shocks blow out and I'll have to buy those as well....too much money!...how the hell do you guys afford to do all this **** to your cars?!

And I like my rims! (just wish they were bigger)

We save up lunch money and stay at 110 lbs like me.

Or you can try applying for scholarships. You never know. (heck, i got like $6k from it or something). Try financial aide too. I try to find deals on most of the stuff i buy. you can generally find a good price if you wait long enough.

oh yeah, and good luck on your car.

Yup, scholarship and financial aid takes care of my college expenses too. All the money i make at work goes toward rent, the bills and my ride. Im still progressing slowly, so give it time youll get the mods eventually.
