I have a budget of about £300-£400 and have decided that I only want to buy a couple of last bits for the car (I am hopefully going to be getting a newer car at the end of this year).

I am undecided on what I should get, although I have been looking into the handling side more than anything (Anti-Roll-Bar) and maybe polybushes

Unless you have already seen my project thread, I have:
Engine stuff (inlet manifold, decat, cat-back, induction kit)
Suspension (Eibach springs)
Cosmetic (Tints, Depo's, MHW's, side repeaters)

I was initially thinking of getting an exhaust manifold and then just buying the some other little bits (Lockwood dials & Steering wheel)

Argh I am so undecided

Anyone got any ideas?

Thanks

I won't be selling it for a good few months yet (3 or 4 months at the earliest)

Not seen the build post, but?

Nice momo stearing wheel and matching knob, gator, and handbrake??

Tigra dial surrounds?

Exhaust fannymould is good. I think Janspeeds is about £120, same design as Lexmaul but mild steel.


Poly Bushes?
Braided brake lines?
Scrappys - Astra GTE brakes - rebuild, new seals, paint, and get some nice discs and good pads for them?

If I had any intentions on selling my car, I wouldn't spend a penny on it. Just maintenance if needed.

Sorry should have mentioned that I have a fairly good sound system (headunit, all speakers have been upgraded and sub/amp)

Could you be more specific on the pricing on those?
