You need a rear spoiler.

Girlfriends are important, sometimes more important than the car. I'd suggest you save up for her. But if you really want to spend it on the car a rear spoiler would be a good idea. Buy them from www.pfyc.com $100-$150 I think. You can't get a good pre-built CAI for under $200, so either save up for that one or get something else. Tinting jobs start at $100, go up to $300, you might be in the market for that.

lol spend on your gf bro. That's what I would do, but hey that's just me. I wouldn't bother with the "Real" intake...just get a K&N air filter and drop it in the box....lol you can try to go for the one CAI that's got the plexiglass enclosure...i forgot the name of it, but if you look at the engine topic in the threads...look for one that says "Custom CAI" or something like that

You're not going to get much for the Monte for $120.

Spend it on the g/f. And don't tell her you had to think about it either. You'll score more points if you say, "Of course I thought of you first!"

Yeah, GF.... You have to... I too get the, "It's only a car, Rick." statement frequently, but what does she know, right?
