I have 1000 what to do...
Saturday, November 20, 2010 12:28 PM
I have some money I ran into and I need some ideas, so far I have tinted my windows, painted door handles and mirrors, bought new tires michelens sorry cant spell, I tinted my tail lights, but now im stuck...

What do I do its winter in ohio so I dont want to lower it right now, I could do a short shifter, shorty antena, some hid lights, exhaust, intake, remote starter and a new cd player, and maybe a 3 pillar gauge pod, thats a few ideas...

But what would you guys do....

In this economy I would save it for other expenses or just help pay off the car if u still owe in it.

You could knock a year off your payments. Youd be surprised how quick you could end up being upside down on a loan on a J-Body.

So you put $1000 towards the $4000 total and then you only owe $3000. A $0 a month car payment is better than even a $50 a month car payment

this.

if your'e dead set on doing something fun with the car, then put 500 toward lowering it or n2o or an lss kit or a stereo setup. 500 goes a long way in every one of those categories. you could get a full lip kit, pretty much a complete n2o setup, a nice big chunk towards lowering the car, or a pretty nice audio setup for 500 bucks and still have 500 to take off the loan.

i would like to lower the car, i know i have to buy new struts and springs, i cant find anything for less that 400.00 for everything. i would install them myself to save money but i dont want to have a lot of money wraped in just lowering.

That's a damn good deal, I think I got a text about it.

D-Specs + Sportlines are the way to go. I drive mine in the winter just fine.

use the $1000 for a down payment and trade in the cavalier on something better.

Keep an eye on the Classifieds for a quality used setup. I wasn't planning on lowering mine until I got a hell of a deal on a set of Goldlines and Koni Reds

But like everyone's said, I'd put that money toward the payment so you don't have to worry about it. I've always been one to pay the car off, then put money into mods

did you buy the conversion kit thingy for the stereo? if so it should have pictures and instructions in there. also use the search function in the interior section. there's video's and step by step instructions with pics in there.
